Summary/Abstract: “ACoTo? Wanderer’s Guide” is a practical guide accompanying a set of narrative cards developed as an outcome of the project carried out by the “ACoTo?” Student Research Club, entitled “Development, Application and Commercialisation of Innovative Teaching Materials for Fostering Children’s Creative and Reflective Thinking.” The project was funded under the programme of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education “Student Research Clubs Create Innovations.” The guide presents proposals for working with base images and supplementary images, designed as an open-ended tool for developing children’s imagination, creative and reflective thinking, and verbal expression. The publication shows how the cards can be used to ask questions, build narratives, interpret images, anticipate events, negotiate meanings, and create original stories. The proposed activities may be used in preschool and early primary education, in individual and group work, as well as in workshop, after-school, and creative educational activities.
