PREVIOUSLY RECORDED WEBINAR SERIES:

Overview

Shared reading provides successful, enjoyable, social experiences around texts that build community in the classroom. It offers the opportunity to nurture students' abilities to construct meaning in a supported context and learn critical concepts of how texts work. Throughout this interactive series, Fountas and Pinnell-trained consultant Chrisie Moritz will explore ways to use shared reading to build community amongst students as well as help students build an early reading process and develop a strong foundation of letters, sounds, and words.

During this series, participants will:

• consider the values of shared reading
• develop an understanding of reading as a complex process
• use The Fountas & Pinnell Literacy Continuum and the Fountas & Pinnell Comprehensive Phonics, Spelling, and Word Study Guide as tools for observing students, identifying teaching goals, and developing an understanding of the characteristics of texts
• learn the components of a shared reading lesson
• develop an understanding of how teaching in shared reading can “lead” guided reading forward
• consider changes over time in implementing shared reading
• become familiar with the Fountas & Pinnell Classroom™ Shared Reading Collection resources.
