I reviewed the sample Somali textbook and can see the core material already has a strong instructional foundation, with alphabet work, picture based vocabulary, handwriting practice, matching exercises, short reading passages, and progressive classroom activities. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} The main opportunity is to reorganize that content into a clearer four level progression and rebuild it with a consistent modern textbook system in InDesign. I have experience with children’s books, educational layouts, workbook structure, and print ready production. Portfolio: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Humaumair12 I’d suggest starting with curriculum mapping and one sample unit before rolling out the full series. Warm Regards, Huma
