Textbook and Mood board
For my mood board I chose some colors I though were natural colors. For my main text I am between choosing Helvetica or Futura. I think Futura has more of a "textbook" feel, so that might be my first choice. For my first page layout, I found a photo I thought fit in well. I chose for it to take up most of the two pages because it is more interesting for readers, and there aren't many pages in textbooks that a photo takes up so much space. For my Header, I chose Myanmar, because I think it is interesting to look at, while still being professional. I am still working on how to lay out the information in an interesting way.
Beautiful color palette and interesting typography choices; you may want to consider a serif and sans serif treatment. Is the lighter green also in the color palette? You might want to consider a lighter version of that if it is running behind text type. We will have to see them in action more to see how it goes. The justified type is showing gaps so be mindful of the size relationship to the column width and the use of flush left vs. justified text treatments. The color shadows seem a bit dated but it will be easier to judge when we see the first spread.
