Traditional Literature

Title: The Ugly Ducklings and Other Fairy Tales
Genre: Traditional Literature
Author: Hans Christian Andersen 
Age Group: 4-6

Teacher Evaluation: For me as a teacher this would help benefit younger kids because fairy tales are always a good way to get the young minds of the children going. Also having other fairy tales and not just one is a good way to keep young children engaged in what your reading to them and also these are fairy tales that have been around for decades so teaching them and reading them to the children now will bring the tradition of these tales staying around for longer. I remember this book when was younger and I enjoyed whenever the teacher would pull it out for us to listen to her read because we liked those stories and hearing stories that have always been around we could hear them for a couple years and know exactly what happens.

Honorable Mentions: The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz and Stone Soup

    Every teacher no matter the grade needs to have a book of Fairy Tales on his/her bookshelf. When students are turning a deaf ear. Whip it out and just read!

Reflection Favorite Picture Book

     Historical Fiction is basically real historical events used in a fictional setting for its story at the time. Lets say that the story is set in a time that we are very fond of and it could really be anything in history so lets say Gladiator, the story and setting take place years and years ago in the past but the actual movie most likely did not happen in the past, it was just made up in that time period to show what could've happen in that time. To me when it comes to my thoughts on this genre, I feel that it is good to have books or even movies like this genre because when it comes to the past we only know what is taught to us or what we learn on our own. We can have the books and movies based in the past to give us an idea of what exactly could've happened back then. "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" tells the story of Bruno, a young German boy whose father is appointed as the commandant of a concentration camp during World War II, forcing Bruno to move to a de...
