Pros are, It will enhanced visibility, interactive features, and accessibility. While the cons are, distraction, screen time concerns: dependency on technology and technical issues. 

The decision to use a smart screen for projecting picture books should consider the specific needs and preferences of the audience, balancing the benefits of enhanced visibility and interactivity with potential drawbacks such as distraction and screen time concerns. Additionally, integrating digital projection with traditional printed books can offer a versatile approach that combines the benefits of both mediums.

Some of the questions Mr. Walters asked to engage his students was, "What would you do if you were disabled, and had to help your family? He talked about why his papa left, and how his mom had to carry him to school until he was too heavy to carry. He asked the students if they could hop around the track outside 8 times, and told them to imagine Emmanuel doing that twice a day. After his Mama got sick, he decided to take a train to go to work even though his Mama didn't want him too. He was gone for two years. He asked his students why they think he was gone for two years. Why didn't he just go to the store or somewhere closer. Mr. Walters asked his students what they would do if their family was in need. He had to help his Mother take care of his little brother, and sister. He corrected some students behavior to keep them on track. I think the pros, and cons of having the picture book projected on the smart screen is that some kids might not be as focused. He got down on the floor so that he could be in the same space as his students. Cons, he had to get students to refocus how many times because he wasn't facing the students when he had to change the page. He had to refocus his students. If he was in Rural Alaska, the internet would be a problem. Many times we get glitches or the internet doesn't work when it's supposed too.
