Hi Penny,
I teach in a district where our 2-4th graders participate in a vocabulary program called "Bringing Words to Life" (based on the book with the same title written by Beck, McKeown, and Kucan). There is a wonderful third grade teacher at my school who has created interactive powerpoints that match each weeks three "power words". Her students are not only benefiting from the exposure to new and useful vocabulary but the intergration of technology increases their motivation and participation! If you would like more information please let me know!
