This action research was conducted in a kindergarten class of fourteen 5-year old children for three months. The purpose was to explore the process and strategies of the teacher's shared reading. Data were collected through observation, sound and video recording, daily journal and other document. The conclusions are as follows: 1. Encouraging children to read through a diverse way of shared reading under less pressure can improve their language ability in general. 2. The strategies of shared reading work for young children included predicting, appropriate questioning, repeated reading, discussing, connecting and comparing, reading theater and independent reading. 3. The choosing of picture books in shared reading has to consider children's cultural background and life experiences. Reader theater activity can apparently increase their motivation for reading. 4. Children can scaffold each other during independent reading. Their reading performances after conducting shared reading are improved. Applying shared reading can improve the teacher's professional development. Advices for teachers' practice and future research are discussed. |
