In hopes that they will become well-informed and functional members of society, students are offered numerous facts and ideas about the world in which they live. Students are expected to take this information in and to also make it their own, expand on it, and be able to apply it to situations within their lives. How can teachers achieve the greatest understanding and interest among the greatest number of children?
Children’s literature is a powerful medium for understanding the world and is
created to entertain or educate. For young people this literature is becoming much more common as a means of instruction in the classroom.
Literature includes books that are found in a library or bookstore as well as songs and poems. Textbooks are books used specifically for learning in school, and, therefore, have different strengths and weaknesses. Students benefit vastly from the integration of literature into the math, science, and social studies curriculum.
