KDSF-National Centre Collaboration with USM – Shared Book Reading Training of Trainers Program

On 5 and 6 May 2025, ten of our teachers participated in the Shared Book Reading (SBR) Training of Trainers (ToT) program conducted by Dr. Phoon from Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). The training aimed to equip our team with the skills needed to effectively facilitate the SBR program. Following this, our trained teachers successfully conducted an SBR workshop for parents on 14 June 2025, with approximately 30 participants in attendance.

Shared Book Reading is a literacy practice in which an adult and child read a book together, with the adult actively guiding and engaging the child to support their language and literacy development.
