Technology Enhanced Lesson Used

I think it would be a great way to incorporate technology into a lesson that I already have planned. I have planned a guided reading lesson to do on Friday morning. This guided reading lesson is with a small group of students, around 5, and they will be introduced to a new book. I will make a powerpoint presentation to introduce the students to the new book. This could be a great visual way for students to be prepared for what they will be reading about. I will include slides that show new vocabulary that they will be exposed to as well as information about the author. Students may find it interesting to learn about the people who write the books they read. I think that by displaying this Powerpoint presentation on a laptop to the class would be a great way for students to access the information. When a small group of students is being taught, using one laptop should be sufficient for them to be able to see the information. I think that incorporating technology into lessons already planned and thought of is a much better way to use technology rather than base the lesson around the technology. Since I had planned on introducing a new book to a reading group, I figured that I could enhance the lesson by using technology, specifically Powerpoint.
