March was the month of poetry! Greeks had the chance to read a poem to their friends! They also completed the mixed verses of the Catalan poem and they invited their partners to do the same.
They even created a common poem dedicated to spring using the meeting words web2.0 tool!
They became Little poets and working in 10 transnational groups according to their interests they wrote collaboratively poems which are gathered all in an ebook!!
