In any foreign language classroom, the teacher can model a story at first and show them the different things that can be included in their story. Students can create stories on simple vocabulary (clothes, school subjects, things around the house, etc.) from converting English stories into their native language. The teacher can work collaboratively with the technology/computer teacher to allow students to work on their creations in class. This will allow students to ask questions, work with others, and use their imagination and what was already taught/reinforced in class.
For example, if I were to allow students to create books on 'School Supplies and School Subjects' in Spanish, I would create objectives such as; students will create a story on different school supplies and subjects in Spanish, students will use photos to design a book that will show their understanding of the major vocabulary on school subjects and school supplies.

I like your idea of having the students create their own books of vocabulary that they are studying in L2.
