Shared Interactive Reading for Young Children with Disabilities: A Review of Literature with Implications for Future Research
Abstract
Shared interactive reading, or shared book reading, is a commonly used practice that has a strong research base for children who are typically developing, those at risk, and for children with disabilities. It has been used to target both language and preliteracy skills in preschool children with and without disabilities, generally effecting positive change in the specific skills targeted. This article gives an overview of the research literature regarding shared interactive reading as an intervention for young children with and without disabilities. Implications for using shared interactive reading as a strategy for young children with disabilities are included.
