Description This advanced literature course will survey fiction and non-fiction books for school age students. Genres to be discussed include picture books, traditional literature, modern fantasy, contemporary realistic fiction, historical fiction, multicultural literature, informational books, biographies and graphic books. Students will also explore new issues and trends in literature including technological advancements including e-books and audio books. The target audience for this course is students enrolled in the Library Media Program, but the course is equally suitable for other educators. This course is designed to help the educator evaluate and select appropriate literature to develop and maintain school library collections as well as classroom and instructional libraries. During this course, students will critically discuss current issues in children's and young adult literature. Purpose The course has a three-fold purpose. First, as a survey course, it is designed to assist teachers and librarians in becoming acquainted with the large number of trade and electronic books available for children. A second purpose is to assist teachers and librarians in guiding children toward a more comprehensive, creative, and insightful utilization of children s literature in and outside the classroom and across the curriculum. The third purpose is to facilitate reading specialists who want to develop, implement, and evaluate literature-based programs. The course will explore instructional techniques for teaching language arts. The class will survey and discuss the wide range of children s literature and how such literature can be used to extend children s literary experiences and facilitate language arts instruction. We will examine the role of literature in the personal development of children as well as best-practice instructional techniques for teaching comprehension and appreciation. Essential Questions 1. What is the role of literature in fostering children s cognitive and social development as well as their appreciation of reading? 2. How can understanding and evaluating the different genres in children s literature help with selecting appropriate literature for children and in meeting their needs? 3. In what ways does knowledge of multicultural children s literature apply to teaching in a diverse world? 4. What is the role of children s literature in teaching critical reading in the content areas? 5. How is best practice in reading instruction integrated with teaching children s literature? Rev 06/25/2012 Page 1
2 6. What is the role of the library media specialist in collaborating with the classroom teacher and other educational staff? 7. How can technology motivate students appreciation of literature and improve their reading? 8. How are the New Hampshire Grade Level Expectations, the forthcoming Common Core Standards and the American Association of School Libraries (AASL) Standards for the 21 st- Century Learner met through an understanding of quality children s literature?
