The importance of reading at an early age is key to the development of future learning in the short and long term, for this reason an investigation was proposed in the second-year students of the María Piedad Castillo de Levi Educational Unit, which had as. The objective is to propose an educational strategy through reading corners to promote the reading habit in students. It was a descriptive study, with a quantitative approach, in which we worked with 38 people, 35 parents and 3 teachers, obtaining the following results: parents reported that their children do not show interest in reading, they do not read on their own initiative own or enjoy the process, children do not have a vocabulary according to their age, they do not identify their favorite reading topics, they read with difficulty. The dimensions with the best evaluation in children when reading were intonation and dramatization, the lowest results were in the dimension of rhythm. Teachers consider that reading in children is important as a learning tool, the main strategies they use to awaken the pleasure of reading in children are based on selecting striking readings. When students get distracted while reading, most teachers talk to the group explaining what happens after they get distracted. Therefore, it is important to use reading corners to promote the reading habit in children.
