This resource embeds the use of online collaboration tools and 21st century learning skills to support students across Stage 2 English and creative arts (visual arts). It presents students with a real-world challenge to create a class picture book and organise a launch event for the book. Students work collaboratively to explore landscape artworks and create an artwork that could be the book’s cover. Each student contributes an artwork and accompanying text to the book.
