Background & Context
Many young students enjoy reading stories, but traditional literacy instruction often lacks creativity, collaboration, and connection to student voice. This project was designed to transform early elementary storytelling by integrating technology, visual design, and peer learning.
Built on the Connected Learning framework, the lesson plan focuses on interest-driven, peer-supported, and production-centered learning—encouraging every student to be a storyteller, designer, and publisher.
