Mock-up website for Triumph Learning, Common Core Coach Clinics, English Language Arts, Grade 1 (Grades 1-8 series)

Goal: To create a site playful and youthful, yet intuitively functional for the classroom teacher. I sought out to create fluid transitional web pages echoing the pedagogy of the Common Core Standards, to mimic the building block philosophy behind the Common Core Standards by repeating elements, icons, colors schemes, and illustrations page to page.

When I was designing the print version for this series, I fell in love with Amy Cartwright's illustrations and thought it be a neat idea to transfer it to the web. I received constructive criticism from my 7-year old twin boys every step of the way. 
 
Included are select screenshots and Splash page ideas I had along the way.
