Basically, in elementary school, Literary Reading is designed to fulfill the objective of teaching young learners to perceive and understand a handwritten or machine-printed text. A broader range of tasks include shaping, consolidating and improving the skills of conscious, accurate, fast and expressive reading as well as developing the learner’s genuine interest for books. This is done in classroom reading and home reading.

The primary goal of all elementary school teachers is not only to teach reading, but to educate a conscious independent reader passionate about books. To reach that goal we introduce different types of classroom activities: tongue twisters, vocabulary work, selective reading, roleplay, theatre, games, work in small groups and/ or pairs, individual work, creative tasks, work with a children's book or on a project, work with reading skills tables, etc.

Each classroom is equipped with a reading corner where young learners can get acquainted with children's literature and periodicals as well as comfortably read in their free time. Another interesting reading space is a commonly access library of the lyceum - our young learners are already on the list of its top-visitors.
