Shared reading in preschool uses oversize books with large print and predictable text. After reading the book at least once to enjoy the characters and story, the teacher places the book on an easel so everyone can see the illustrations and text. The children listen as she reads and talks about features of the text. Researchers have found it an effective way to introduce children to the joys of reading and enhance their print awareness (Grabmeier 2012).
