I think that one idea I have for a technology assignment is to introduce the hard to undestand vocabulary in my shared reading book to the students using a PowerPoint presentation with the words and the pictures.

The shared reading is about an aquarium so I think I will take some of the different animals in the aquarium to talk about what they are before we read teh book, so things like Minnows and Guppies and Snappers. The only really way you can describe these on a surface level (just so they can understand what is going on in the context of the book) is to give them a visual image, It also helps if they can see the words that they are learning so they can identify them when they come a crossed them in the reading.
