SHARED READING is a slightly different way of reading together and is based on the simple but powerful idea of letting words have an effect on you. Literature is read aloud as a sensory experience in a protected space - across all cultural, social and age boundaries. In world literature, we encounter ourselves and others - and experience that it does us good and enriches us.
A trained reading guide facilitates access to great literature.
He or she encourages, asks questions and leads into a discussion about what has been heard and read.
Everyone can say what they think and feel. Or remain silent and simply listen.
