Abstract

GUTIERREZ F, Maria  and  OBALLOS, Lourdes. Grandparents who share reading: Proposal to educate literature readers at an initial level. Educere [online]. 2009, vol.13, n.45, pp.331-339. ISSN 1316-4910.

This article exposes a theoretical-practical reflection on the implications that promoting and encouraging reading raises within the context of Initial Education when this one is made of elderly citizens meaningful to children. A pedagogical proposal is suggested that pretends to: promote the social practice of aesthetic reading, motivate volunteering grandparents’ participation, providing them with tools to act as reading cheerleaders and to strengthen the children-family-school relationship. It is concluded that there is a need to develop a task between Pre-schools and the State to educate volunteer cheerleaders on literature reading in both rural and urban spaces, spanning conventional and unconventional attention.

Keywords : pre-school; elderly; reading promoters and cheerleaders.
