Shine Online Reading Club
Shine Online SSR is a magazine-based online reading club for elementary school students. We will read and explore these magazines together live online, learning new words in both English and Chinese as we go. Even students with lower reading levels can join the club. We focus on conversation and comprehension while interacting with the materials in fun and exciting activities.
Shine Online uses new and imaginative ways to present content on the web. Our activities engage students with segments such as brainstorming, steps in a process, related viral videos, listening comprehension and around the home challenges that will have them moving, talking, participating, laughing, and learning.
Level 1 is great for younger elementary school students. The subjects and vocabulary are designed for this age group. Some of the reading may be challenging for younger students. However, even if your children are not reading at this level yet, they will be able to follow along with us as we read and then join the conversation as we talk about what is in the magazine. Level 1 is also suitable for older students who are not confident reading the full articles in the higher levels. Kindergarten students who are already reading or speaking well are also welcome to join.
