This presentation is targeted for teachers/paraprofessionals/parents whose children are Beginning/Emergent Readers and/or Struggling readers in Pre-K through Grade 3. Mini Shared Reading is a bridge for children who do not know all their letters or sound correspondences nor sight words. Instruction is organized to engage the children in the act of proficient reading, i.e. at their potential and not their developmental level. A detailed protocol of the procedures will be shared with examples. This teaching strategy organizes success not failure.
