Paradise full of stars

In this entry I would like to show you my creation with Storybird. It is a Picture Book in which I've tried to illustrate the lyrics of two songs by Coldplay: Paradise and A sky full of stars.

This is only an example that I would elaborate as teacher to ask my students later to create their own story, adapting the text that they want. They can use different types of texts, such us songs, poems, short stories, etc. But they have to keep in mind that the aim of this activity is to illustrate what the story tells, adapting the lyrics if its necessary or simply telling the story from another point of view.


  • Level: A2+/B1. Probably suitable in the last year of Secondary Education.
  • Skills: Reading and Writing.
  • ICT tools emplyed: Storybird (Link to the online resource)




I hope you find it useful and catchy!

  2. I like this activity too much Sara. You have done a good job. I think that practicing writing skills through the use of songs is a motivating task sutable for all ages. It would be a great idea to make a video with these pictures using "MovieMaker" programme and uppload it to youtube as a videoclip.
