Teach Language via Low Content Books
2 min readJul 23, 2022
How can you teach language via a low-content book?
Low-content books like graphic novels, coloring books, and notebooks with prompts are wonderful resources to teach language.
- Use your existing lessons and activities to create the book. Format and save it as a pdf.
- Start out with a coloring book teaching vocabulary. I created a series of vocabulary books that were easy to create. Especially when you use Canva, a free app to design just about anything.
- Next, understanding your audience is important. Besides coloring books, perhaps your students like stories? Teaching language via stories enhances comprehension. Plus stories with illustrations are memorable.
- Once you have created your book on Canva, you can download the book in pdf form.
- Create a cover page. For e-books save the cover page as a jpeg. For paperbacks save it as a pdf.
- Make sure to follow Kindle which has strict guidelines for creating the cover page and interior format of the book. More details on publishing guidelines in my course.
- Next, create a free account on Kindle Publishing.
- Upload your pdf onto Kindle and follow the steps to publish.
- Publish your book in ebook, paperback, and hardcover format.
Language Low Content Book Advantages
There are advantages to creating low-content books to teach language.
- Having a niche market. With the glut of journals and coloring books in the market, you may not show up in search results unless you paid for some aggressive advertising.
- Targeting a specific audience. Your students.
- Make royalty passive income every time a student buys your book.
- Turn your existing lesson plans and activities into books.
- Teach and coach others to do the same — another source of income.
