Problem Statement: Utilization of shared reading practice in hearing impaired children's literacy instruction may yield quite beneficial. However an investigation of Turkish literature revealed no studies regarding application of shared reading within elementary settings for hearing or hearing-impaired children. Furthermore international literature is considered rather limited. Rigorous investigations of these practices especially within phonic based literacy instruction settings are needed.
