Rethinking Shared Reading

"We hadn't been getting a lot of resultsĀ (with our kindergarten students).Ā  Since doing this (Building Joyful Reads lessons) we've seen a switch in our student's ability to pick up texts and know how to read them and how to interact with them. It definitely helps with phonics.Ā  Students feel successful (which creates joy). Students are engaged all of the time.Ā This gives meĀ an avenue of teaching the skills in context and yet isĀ the quickest they have been able to pick up sounds.Ā It's fifteen minutes a day."Ā Megan Dodd, Teacher
