More connected than ever before, Shared Reading, Second Edition (K-3) and Colección de Lectura compartida, (K-2) have a newly available digital offering that provides both teachers and students with an abundance of exciting capabilities. With Shared Reading Digital, educators can save time prepping, have access to all resources on their digital devices, and students can read and listen to original, engaging books with the click of a button. Shared Reading Digital takes the most engaging whole-group literacy system and makes it easier and more convenient to teach with and learn from.
During shared reading, teacher and children read aloud a large version of an engaging text that is beyond children’s ability to read independently during whole group instruction. Texts provide early experiences with print and promote the development of reading processes. After the first reading, children take part in multiple, subsequent readings of the text. Children discuss the text and the teacher selects teaching points based on children’s needs. For additional enrichment and learning, children can read and listen to the text online in the classroom or at home with their families.
The Shared Reading Collection, PreK-4 (K-3 in Second Edition and PreK, 4 in First Edition) features an exquisite collection of original texts in a variety of genres that nurture students’ abilities to construct meaning in a supported context so they can enjoy reading and learn critical concepts of how texts work. The Shared Reading Collection has been transadapted into Spanish in Colección de Lectura compartida, PreK-2.
