What is Children's Literature?

Children's literature has no single

definition. It can be defined as the body
of written works and accompanying
illustrations produced in order to

entertain or instruct young people. It

encompasses a wide range of works,

including

acknowledge classics of world literature,

picture
 Nancy Anderson, of the College of
Education at the

University of South Florida, defines

children's literature

as "all books written for children,

excluding works such as

comic books, joke books, cartoon books,

and non-fiction

works that are not intended to be read

from front to back,

such as dictionaries, encyclopedias, and

other reference

materials. However, others would

argue that comics

should also be included: "Children's

Literature studies has

traditionally treated comics fitfully and

superficially

despite the importance of comics as

a global

phenomenon associated with

children.
Brief History of Children's

Literature
 Children's literature began to
flourish in the

seventeenth century, initially focusing

on didactic

purposes to teach moral and spiritual

values. However,

in the mid-1700s, British publisher

John Newbery

shifted the focus to books that

entertained children,

marking the start of a gradual transition

from purely

instructional literature to works that

entertain and

inform, while still reflecting cultural and

ethical values.
 A significant development in the
twentieth

century was the rise of the picture book,

which

combines images and text to create a

cohesive

story. This genre evolved with

contributions from

renowned illustrators and advancements

in color

reproduction technology, allowing for a

diverse

range of artistic media.

The literature for older children has also
evolved, with many

talented authors now writing

primarily for younger

audiences. Additionally, there has been a

significant increase

in multicultural children's literature since

the mid-twentieth

century, addressing the need for more

inclusive and diverse

representations. The range of topics

covered in children's

fiction has expanded to include

previously taboo subjects,

enabling young readers to explore

complex aspects of life

through literature.

LITERATURE IN THE LIVES OF

CHILDREN: ITS IMPORTANCE

Ma. Lovenia Joy O. Palen

REPORTER
Literature serves children in four

Major ways:

(1)It helps them to better

Understand themselves, (2) others,

(2)Their world, and (4) the aesthetic

Values of written language.

 1. BETTER UNDERSTAND
THEMSELVES.

When children read fiction, narrative

poetry,

Or biography, they often assume the role

of

One of the characters. Through that

Character’s thoughts, words, and actions

the

Child develops insight into his or her own

Character and values.

 2. BETTER UNDERSTAND OTHERS.

When children assume the role of a

Book’s character as they read, they

Interact vicariously with the other

Characters portrayed in that particular

Selection.
 3. BETTER UNDERSTAND THE
WORLD.

Since, literature is not subject to

temporal or

Spatial limitations, books can figuratively

Transport readers across time and space.

Other places in times past, present, or

future

Invite children’s exploration.

 4. BETTER UNDERSTAND THE
AESTHETIC

VALUES OF WORDS.

Written language in its literary uses is an

Instrument of artistic expression.

Through

Prose and poetry, children explore the

Versatility of the written word and learn

to

Master its depth of meaning.

Donna Norton (2010) emphasizes the

Importance of children’s literature in

Her book “Through the Eyes of a

Child.”
 1. Children’s Literature provides

Students with the opportunity to

Respond to literature.
 2. Children’s literature provides an

Avenue for students to learn about their

Own cultural heritage and the cultures of

Other people.
 3. Children’s literature helps students

Develop emotional intelligence.

 4. Children’s literature encourages

Creativity.
 5. Children’s literature fosters

Personality and social development.

 6. Children’s literature is a timeless

Tradition, of transmitting literary heritage

From one generation to the next.

GENERAL

TYPES

OF

CHILDRE

N'S
 As pre-service teachers, you should

know the categories of children's

literature because you are to decide the

appropriate and best category to teach

your English lesson.

 The choice must be aligned to the

interests of students suited to their

grade level in that way, children will be

motivated to actively participate in the

development of the communication

skills in learning a second language

subject.
 TRADITIONAL

Traditional literature encompasses books

LITERATURE

rendered from oral tradition--stories that

have been passed down for ages (Kiefer,

2007) and as a result, are commonly

shared

throughout the world. This literature

includes folktales, myths, fables, and

legends."
A. FOLKTALES AND

FOLKLORES

"Folktales and folklores differ from the

stories of today in that folktales are

more

interested in preserving tradition rather

than creating it. Whereas the modern

storyteller values originality of plot, the

folklorist values connecting his

audience

with past and present culture

(Thompson 4).
 B. MYTHS

Myth is a folklore genre

consisting of narratives that

play a fundamental role in a

society, such as foundational

tales or origin myths. The main

characters in myths are usually

gods, demigods, or

supernatural humans.
 C. FABLES

A short allegorical

narrative making a moral

point, traditionally by means

of characters who speak and

ack like a human being.

 D. LEGENDS

A legend is a genre of folklore that

narrates the origin of a place, a thing or

an

object. It consists of a narrative featuring

human actions perceived or believed

both by

teller and listeners to have taken place

within human history. Narratives in this

genre may demonstrate human values

and

possess certain qualities that give the

tale

the appearance of truth.

 POETRY AND VERSES

Poetry and verse are condensed,

distilled and

rhythmical expression of imaginative

thoughts

and perceptions. The meaning of Poetry

and

verse for children is conveyed by the

placement

and design of the words on the page

instead of,

or in addition to, the usual arrangement

of

words. Poetry and verses for children

include:

Nursery Rhymes; Limericks; and,

Nonsense

vernes.
 A. NURSERY

RHYMES

Nursery rhymes, also known

as Mother Goose rhymes are

short songs and verses often

read or sung to, or by, young

children marked by a use of

rhythm and rhyme that makes

them easy to remember.

 B. LIMERICKS

A limerick is a witty,

humorous, or nonsense poem,

especially in five lines with a strict

rhyme scheme pattern of AABBA,

with each line having a specific

number of syllables: 8-8-5-5-8

Limerick is very useful in teaching

sounds and phonemes.

 C. NONSENSE

VERSE

A type of poetry featuring fantastic

images or

made-up words that entertains through

its wild

silliness. As suggested by the word

nonsense, it is

humorous or whimsical verse that differ

from other

comic verse in its resistance to any

rational or

allegorical interpretation. Though it often

makes

use of coined, meaningless words, it is

unlike the

ritualistic gibberish of children's

counting-out

rhymes in that it makes these words

sound

purposeful.
 FICTION

Fiction literature is created from

the imagination, not presented as

fact, though it may be based on a

true story or situation, Fiction

includes: Fantasy: Science

Fiction; Realistic Fiction; and

Literary Fiction.
 A. FANTASY

is a genre that has much to offer

elementary graders. One of the most

compelling reasons for giving children

fantasy is that it comments on social

reality through indirections (metaphor,

allegory, parable) and can therefore deal

with complex moral questions in a more

playful and exaggerated manner.

 SCIENCE

FICTION

A special type of friction, or story based

on extending physical laws and scientific

principles to their logical outcomes.

Made-

up stories of this genre try to answer

such

questions as: What might occur in the

future; What life on another planet might

be like; or How different kinds of

technology might affect life on Earth

 C. REALISTIC FICTION

A genre of stories that are made

up but could very well happen in

real life. These stories often take

place in settings familiar to

children---- like schools---- which

makes them more relatable.

 C. LITERARY FICTION

Literary fiction where the story

takes place in the past. It captures the

details of the time period as accurately

as possible for authenticity, including

social norms, manners, customs, and

traditions. It tells fictional stories that

involve actual historical figures or

 THE NATURE AND

STRUCTURE OF LANGUAGE
Criteria of a language:

System of communication to be

Considered a language, must have the

Following criteria:

1. Uses symbols, which are sounds,

Gestures, or written characters that

Represents objects, actions, events, and

 2. Generative, which means that

The symbols of a language can be

Combined to produce an infinite

Number of messages.

3. Has rules that govern how

Symbols can be arranged.

The Building Blocks of Language

The organization of language

Follows a hierarchical order:

1) Phonemes, 2) Morphemes, 3)

Phrases, and 4) Sentences.

 1. Phoneme is the smallest

Distinguishable unit in a language. The

Alphabet of the English language

Consists of 26 letters; however, there

Are approximately 44 unique sounds.

The 44 sounds help distinguish one

Word or meaning from another.

Various letters and letter

Combinations known as

Graphemes are used to represent

The sounds. Phonemes

Correspond to combination of

Consonants, such as ch, sh and

Th.
Literature is a rich source

Of examples to promote

Phonological awareness.

Allington et al. (1998) note the

Importance of using a range of

Resources purposefully such as

Nursery rhymes, riddles, songs,

Poems, and read-aloud books

That manipulate sounds to draw

Young learners’ attention to the

Sounds of spoken language.

For example, using a familiar

Rhyme such as “Five Little

Monkeys”provides a playful and

Meaningful context for young

Learners:
Five little monkeys jumping

On the bed

One fell off and bumped his head

Mama called the doctor and the

Doctor said,

“No more monkeys jumping on the

Bed!”
Example of riddles:

1. I am a sister but I may not have

Any siblings ?

2. I shoot but never kill ?

2. Morpheme , many words have two or

More morphemes but only one syllable:

Example:

Cat-s = cats

Run-s =runs

Un-happy = unhappy

Category-ize-d =categorized
There are two types of

Morphemes

€¢Free morphemes – can stand

Alone with a specific meaning, for

Example, eat, date, weak.

€¢Bound morphemes – cannot stand

Alone with meaning.

Example:

€¢womanly

€¢ unhealthy

€¢thinker
Morphemes are comprised of two

Separate classes called (a) bases (or

Roots) and (b) affixes. A “base,” or “root”

Is a morpheme in a word that gives the

Word its principle meaning. An example

Of a “free base” morpheme is woman is

The word womanly.

An example of a bound base

Morpheme is sent in the word dissent.

An “affix” is a bound morpheme that

Occurs before or after a base An affix

That comes before a base is called a

“prefix. Some examples of prefixes

Are ante in antedate , pre in

Prehistoric, un in unhealthy.
An affix that comes after a base is

Called a “suffix. Some examples of

Suffixes are -ly, er, ism, and ness,

As in the following words: happily,

Gardener, capitalism; and

Kindness.To easily remember what

Morpheme is,
Phrase. A phrase is a group of words

That express a concept and is used as

A unit within a sentence.

Eight common types of phrases are:

Noun, verb, gerund, infinitive,

Appositive, participial, prepositional,

And absolute.
A noun phrase can act as the

Subject of a sentence.

Example :

The red house down the street is

Beautiful.

The cute dog across the street is

Mine.
A verb phrase a combination of an

Action verb and a helping verb, which is

Also known as an auxiliary verb.

Example:

€¢ My mother has cooked food

Gerund phrase. Includes a

Gerund (a word ending in -ing)

And always functions as a noun

Used as the subject, subject

Complement, direct object, or

Object of a preposition.
Gerund: Eating can make you feel

Energetic.

Gerund phrase: Eating healthy

Food can make you feel energetic.

Infinitive phrase is the infinitive

Form of a verb plus any

Complements and modifiers.

Example :

To climb/ a rope/ without using

Your legs is hard.

An appositive phrase is a phrase that
renames

Or identifies a noun or pronoun. It is

typically

Placed next to the noun or pronoun it

modifies and

Off by commas.

Example :

€¢The dog, a golden retriever, wagged

its tail happily

€¢ Pizza, my favorite food, is perfect for

any

Occasion.
Participial phrase begins with a past

Or present participle.

Example:

€¢ Knowing what I know now, I wish I

Had never come here.

Prepositional phrase begins with a

Preposition and can act as a noun,

An adjective or an adverb.

Example: The book was on the table.

Absolute phrase has a subject, but

Not an action verb, so it cannot stand

Alone as a complete sentence. It

Modifies the whole sentence, not just

A noun.

Example: Picnic basket in hand , she

Set off for her date.

S EA N T E N is

Sentence CaEset of words that is

complete

In itself, typically containing a subject

and

Predicate, conveying a statement,

question,

Exclamation, or command, and

consisting of a

Main clause and sometimes one or more

Subordinate clauses.
WHICH TYPE OF

SENTENCE IS

THIS: “CLOSE

THE DOOR

I M M E D I A T E LY ! “ ?

Imperative sentences give a direct

The use of multidisciplinary approach an

development go

not just

Simply for the development of cognitive

Academic competencies but also with the

Development of cultural enrichment and

Appreciation. This is the rationale beyond

the

Practice of inserting language lessons

with

Literary study.

PRINCIPLES OF

TEACHING AND

LEARNING

LANGUAGE
 As pre-service teachers, your
teaching should be

Guided by set of principles. Why?

Because, principles

Explain educational processes. Principles

of teaching show

How things are done and how

educational results are

Achieved. On the part of a teacher,

principles are

Important because it guides his/her

reflective thinking and

His/her choice of activities and actions to

achieve best

Results.
 1. Begin with the end in mind. With a
specific objective in

Mind, the lesson become more focused.

Time is not killed

For you are sure of what to teach, how to

teach and the

Materials to use.

2. Encourage the students to

personalize the learning goals

Identified for them. Your students must

own the lesson

Objectives.
 3. Motivation is essential in Learning.
Since learning is an

Experience which occurs inside the

learner and is activated by

Learner (Pine, G. & P. Home, 1996 as

mentioned by Corpuz,

Et al 2015). It is necessary that the

students get self- motivated

To learn English.

4. Leaming is a social activity. Pine

and Horne (1996) say

Learning is a “cooperative and

collaborative process”.

Cooperative approaches are enabling.

People enjoy

Functioning independently but they also

enjoy functioning

Interdependently.
 5. Teaching language is more
effective and learning, more

Meaningful when it is integrative. When

integrative teaching is

Done, the following are achieved:

- Incorperate the four language arts

listening, speaking, reading, and

Writing.

- Consider varied strategies for all

multiple intelligences and

Learning styles.

- Teach language structure and form in

authentic contexts rather than

Through contrived drills in language

workbooks. (Hill, Jane D. &

Kathleen M Flynn, 2006, as stated by

Corpuz, et al, 2015
 6. A conducive classroom atmosphere
is a sine qua non of the

Teaching-learning process. Always

remember to build comfort

Into learning.

- Encourages people to be active

- Emphasizes the uniquely personal

and subjective nature of learning

- Promotes and facilitates the

individual’s discovery of the personal

Meaning of ideas
 7. Learning is an active process in
which the learner uses sensory

Input and constructs meaning out of it.

Learning is not the

Passive acceptance of knowledge which

exists “out there” but that

Involves the learner’s engaging with the

world.

8. Learning is reflective. The crucial

action of constructing

Meaning is mental. It happens in the

mind. Physical actions,

Hands-on experience may be necessary

for learning but it is not

Sufficient. We need to provide activities

which engage the mind as

Well as the hands.

 9. An approach that allows for more
time, more depth with

Fewer, more complex topics’ is more

desirable. In the desire of

The teacher to cover syllabus content for

the whole year, we

Observe and read of a “mile-wide” and

“inch-deep” teaching.

10. Emphasize on self-evaluation.

Feedback should be criterion-

Referenced. Practice using rubrics. It is

against this personal

Target that they will evaluate themselves

at the end of the lesson.
 11. Make use of an integrated
performance assessment that

Makes the connections between learning

styles, intelligence, and

The real world explicit in a way that is

useful to both students and

Teachers.

12. Emphasize on real world

application that favors realistic

Performances over out- of-context drill

items. Gardner (2000)

Argues for assessment practices that

look directly at the

Performance that we value, whether it is

linguistic, logical,

Aesthetic or social performance.

III.The Needs of

The learners

The Context
The generation born after the year 1994
until 2004 is referred

To as Generation Z. This is the first

generation to be born with

Complete technology. They were born

with PCs, mobile

Phones, gaming devices, MP3 players

and the ubiquitous

Internet. They do not know life without

technology. Hence,

They are often termed as digital natives

and are extremely

Comfortable with technology. They can

email, text and use

Computers without any problems. In

addition, members of

Generation Z can understand and master

advancement in

Technology. Unfortunately, this reliance

on technology and

Gadgets has had a negative effect on the

members. They

Rather stay indoors and use their

electronics than play

Outdoors and be active. They are leading

a sedentary life that

Can result in health problems later on.

Members of Generation Z are adept at
multi-tasking.

They can text, read, watch, talk and

even eat

Simultaneously. However, this has also

led to reduced

Attention span leading to what

psychologists’ call

Acquired attention deficit disorder. This

generation is

Unable to analyze complex data and

information as

They cannot focus for very long.

IV. OUTCOMES

The ultimate goal of the Language Arts

And Multiliteracies Curriculum is to

Produce graduates who apply the

Language conventions, principles,

Strategies and skills in (1) interacting

With others, (2) understanding and

Learning other content areas, and (3)

Fending for themselves in whatever

Field of endeavor they may engage in.

1. Communicative Competence.

- Is a synthesis of knowledge of basic

Grammatical principles, knowledge of

how

Language is used in social settings to

Perform communicative functions, and

how

Knowledge of utterances and

Communicative functions can be

combined

According to the principles of discourse.

 Communicative Competence

1. Grammatical/ Linguistic

- Competence means the acquisition of

phonological rules,

Morphological words, syntactic rules,

semantic rules and lexical

Items.
 2. Sociolinguistic Competence

- refers to the learning of pragmatic

aspect of various

Speech acts, namely, the cultural values,

norms, and other

Sociocultural conventions in social

contexts. They are the

Context and topic of discourse, the

participant’s social status,

Sex, age, and other factors which

influence styles and

Registers of speech. Since different

situations call for different

Types of expressions as well as different

beliefs, views, values,

And attitudes, the development of

sociolinguistic competence

Is essential for communicative social

action
 3. Discourse Competence

-is the knowledge of rules regarding the

cohesion

(grammatical links) and coherence

(appropriate

Combination of communicative actions)

of various types

Of discourse (oral and written).

Sociolinguistic rules of use

And rules of discourse are crucial in

interpreting

Utterances for social meaning,

particularly when the

Literal meaning of an utterance does not

lead to the

Speaker’s intention easily.

 4. Strategic Competence

-is to Do with the knowledge of verbal

and non- verbal

Strategies to compensate for breakdown

such as self-

Correction and at the same time to

enhance the

Effectiveness of communication such as

recognizing

Discourse structure, activating

background knowledge,

Contextual guessing, and tolerating

ambiguity.
2.Multiliteracies

-Multiliteracies (multi literacy

practices)

Recognize that there are many kinds of

literacy at

Work within our society. These include

traditional

Literacy practices using texts as well as

new literacy

Practices using texts of popular culture

such as

Films. Social literacy encompasses how

we

Communicate and exchange meaning in

our society

While professional literacy links with the

notion of

Literacy for school of the workplace.
