Choose a book and guide a discussion about the pictures before reading the story. Introduce new vocabulary as appropriate. Show a few selected pages and ask, “What do you see here?” or “What do you think is happening here?” Introduce new vocabulary using the pictures as support. For example, “Here's the pigeon trying to convince someone to let him drive the bus. Look at his face. He looks anxious and upset. He is “frustrated!” This can be done in small group.
