gruppläsning

Gruppläsning, sometimes translated as group reading or shared reading, is an educational strategy where a teacher or facilitator reads a text aloud to a group of students. The purpose is to model fluent reading, introduce new vocabulary, and engage students with a text that might be at a higher reading level than they could manage independently. During the reading, the facilitator might pause to ask questions, point out features of the text, or encourage participation from the students.

This method allows all students to access complex or challenging material simultaneously, regardless of their individual reading abilities. It can be used with various types of texts, including picture books, informational articles, and even excerpts from novels. Group reading is often employed in early literacy instruction to build foundational reading skills and comprehension. It can also be a valuable tool for older students when introducing new concepts or complex subject matter.

Key components of successful group reading include selecting an appropriate text, the facilitator's expressive reading style, and the integration of interactive elements. These interactive elements can range from simple comprehension checks to more in-depth discussions about the text's content, structure, or author's purpose. The shared experience of listening to a story or information can foster a sense of community and shared understanding among learners.
