Introduction from Mr. Waters

Hello Everyone, and welcome to TE 348: Reading and Responding to Children Literature! In this course we will read and respond using a critical and analytical frame of reference to children literature from around the world. This course will also focus on ways to incorporate children literature into your classrooms and the best methods for evaluating children literature texts. Throughout the course we will learn about different types of children literature and effective ways to utilize books to help children make sense of the world around them. I am looking forward to a great semester where we are able to learn a lot from each another while creating a culture of "achievement and professionalism."
