[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Junior Great Books is program with a specific pedagogy called "shared reading". The program is somewhat misnamed because it does not consist of "Great Books" but rather folk tales and short stories, some of which, are quite compelling. This is not a program designed for "advanced" kids. When we implanted it at our school, it was for everyone.[/quote] It was designed initially for advanced readers. But the market it better if you are doing it for more than advanced readers. That said it is still higher quality reading selections than the crap in many text books so implementing it school wide makes more sense than relying on Pearson textbooks. [/quote]
