The Branka intergenerational reading group is dedicated to reading aloud and socializing around books. We meet twice a month at the Trata local library. Participants bring their own readings, which can be as varied as possible. We read poetry, prose, essays, sometimes interesting articles from newspapers or magazines. We sometimes eagerly talk about what we read, and sometimes we just follow the Pleasant Sounds of loud reading, which each of the participants conjures up. To participate in a group, no special preparation is required, on it we mainly develop joint coexistence with Reading, which occurs spontaneously.
Why read aloud?
- Strengthening social ties-reading in a group connects people of different ages, creates a sense of belonging.
- Fostering empathy and understanding – listening to the voices of different generations strengthens mutual respect and understanding.
- Development of listening-reading aloud strengthens the ability to listen and understand the Heard text with concentration.
- Memory consolidation-reading aloud helps the content to be remembered more easily because it involves the visual, auditory and speech channels at the same time.
- Exchange reading suggestions-at Branka you will quickly discover new Reading Challenges and expand your reading list.
Since this is an open group, there is no need to register for meetings.
It is enough to come and be there.
Well invited!

The Branko intergenerational group for reading aloud is facilitated by the municipality of Skofja Loka, the library of Ivan Tavcar Skofja Loka and The Grable Cultural Association.
Medgeneracijska skupina za glasno branje Branka je namenjena glasnemu branju in druženju ob knjigah. Srečujemo se dvakrat na mesec v prostorih Krajevne knjižnice Trata. Udeleženci prinesejo svoje čtivo, ki je lahko karseda raznoliko. Beremo poezijo, prozo, eseje, včasih tudi zanimive članke iz časopisov ali revij. O prebranem se včasih vneto pogovarjamo, včasih pa samo sledimo prijetnim zvokom glasnega branja, ki ga pričara vsak od udeležencev. Za sodelovanje v skupini niso potrebne posebne priprave, na njej razvijamo predvsem skupno sožitje ob branju, ki se dogaja spontano.
Zakaj glasno branje?
– Krepitev socialnih vezi – branje v skupini povezuje ljudi različnih starosti, ustvarja občutek pripadnosti.
– Spodbujanje empatije in razumevanja – poslušanje glasov različnih generacij krepi medsebojno spoštovanje in razumevanje.
– Razvoj poslušanja – glasno branje krepi sposobnost zbranega poslušanja in razumevanja slišanega besedila.
– Utrjevanje spomina – branje naglas pomaga, da se vsebina lažje zapomni, ker vključuje vidni, slušni in govorni kanal hkrati.
– Izmenjava bralnih predlogov – na Branki boste hitro odkrili nove bralne izzive in razširili svoj seznam branja.
Ker gre za odprto skupino, se na srečanja ni treba prijaviti.
Dovolj je, da pridete in ste zraven.
Lepo vabljeni!
