Abstract

Abstract : The present study examined outcomes of using culturally responsive shared reading in a group counseling setting to promote academic and social-emotional development with a group of seven Latina third graders. Through conducting a mixed methods case study that included quantitative behavioral observation data and qualitative content analysis, participants demonstrated improvement in academic engagement and social-emotional learning (SEL), including respect for others, effective communication and problem solving, self-management, self-awareness, and self-confidence. Implications for employing shared reading as a culturally responsive counseling intervention are described.
