This course about Children Literature was created to encourage in every student the desire to read the children books, to know literature itself rather than what has been written about literature. The second is to interpret literature both personally and historically, that is, to show how a great tale generally reflects not only the author's life and thought but also the spirit of the age and the ideals of the nation's history. Finally to enjoy every class doing our best. English teacher

What about storytelling structure?
What else about storytelling?
Watch this interesting video and please disscuss about it, What do you think?
Plot refers to the series of events that
give a story its meaning and effect.
In most stories, these events arise out of
conflict experienced by the main character.
The conflict may come from
something external, like a dragon or an overbearing mother,
or it may stem from
an internal issue, such as jealousy,
loss of identity, or overconfidence.
In fiction, character refers to a textual representation of a
human being
(or occasionally another creature). Most fiction writers agree that
character
development is the key element
in a story's creation, and in most pieces of fiction
a close identification
with the characters is crucial to understanding the story.
The story's
protagonist is the central agent in generating its plot, and this individual
can embody the story's theme. Characters can be either round or flat, depending
on
their level of development and the extent to which they change.
Setting, quite simply, is the story’s time and
place. While setting includes simple attributes
such as climate or wall décor,
it can also include complex dimensions such as the historical
moment the story
occupies or its social context. Because particular places and times
have their
own personality or emotional essence
(such as the stark feel of a desert or
the grim, wary resolve in the United
States after the September 11th attacks), setting is also
one of the primary ways that a fiction writer
establishes mood.
The
structure point could be the simplicity of a
picture book in terms
of narrative structure, visual appeal and often
fable-like brevity might seem to suggest that
it is indeed ideally suited to a
juvenile readership. It’s about showing and telling, a window for
learning to
‘read’ in a broad sense, exploring relationships between words, pictures
and
the world we experience every day.
Now please, choose a video about one of the famous storytelling, whatever you want and please make a table, explaining all of the elements in it. Good luck in your amazing trip!
