To bring to life first grade Social Studies learning, this class created an alphabet book based on the "Little House on the Prairie" series and Westward expansion topics.
First, Mrs. Willis and her students brainstormed topic options for each of the letters of the alphabet, then assigned to her class.
Next students researched and wrote their "stories," drawing an accompanying picture on paper.
I shared an ABC book template page via Apple Classroom and worked with the students to publish their work in Pages. Many examples of combining pencil and paper artwork with digital artwork were experimented with.
Students rotated through some "finishing stations" where they recorded audio with Mrs. Willis or were photographed in a pioneer costume.
Finally the pages were submitted to me via Apple Classroom so that I could assemble them in a class alphabet book.
Now published on the Apple Books Store, you can enjoy it here:
For members of our audience without access to Apple Books, we shared the following additional versions:
