Foundation
The initial purpose of these daily reading sessions is for the children to be able to
enjoy the pleasure that literature brings. We understand literature as a
form of language that cannot be imprisoned, that is an end in itself and that for
that awakens the construction of imaginaries, of illusions, of culture, of meaning, of
pleasure.
To promote the pleasure of reading in children, I have chosen the literary works of the
children's authors, as they are some of the most prolific writers in the field of
children's literature, among them stand out María Granata, Ricardo Mariño, Sergio De
Giorgi and Gustavo Mazali (collection of short stories about little dogs) among others.

Throughout the 8 weeks, the stories will be read and the children will be recording them.
Titles read on a poster to then check which ones were read and which ones were not.
The teacher will share the reading of the prologue or introduction of the book.

effect that the story produces on the reader: fear, surprise, calmness, emotion...
He/She will pay attention to the interest and other reactions of the children during reading.
After reading:
The teacher will respect the silence that may occur after the reading during
a few seconds to enjoy the weather and generate spontaneous comments from the
children.
The exchange will start with a contribution from a child, if there is any, in the
measure that poses a challenge for everyone. Or else, start from emotions,
effects, impacts that history has caused, some passage, dialogue, or character in
particular.
It will support and deepen the exchange by returning to the text and discussing what has been read.

for everyone with different purposes: to highlight the beauty of an expression or
to forewarn the intervention of a character or the most exciting part of the story;
to clarify an interpretation that is uncertain or to confirm or rectify
different appreciations when a discrepancy arises among children; such as
example:
to repair regarding some overlooked aspect;
communicate one's own impact or appreciation;
to counter-argue something if there is no one to do it;
- ...etc.
It is about 'commenting among readers' rather than assessing whether the children have
understood; that is to say, to provide opportunities for students to progress
expanding their tastes as readers and their possibilities of interpretation.
