What should teachers do to help children read literature?

- I invite you to watch this video and disscuss it into the classroom. Keep in mind the statements  given. 

• Children are naturally capable of taking pleasure in what they read.
• Readers are made, not born (Chambers, 1983).
• Literature is more experienced than taught (Glazer, 1986)
• Literature must be discussed. It is only by discussing with others who have experienced a book that new meaning can be effectively constructed (Bicknell, p. 45).
• Children need teachers to demonstrate how to enter into and explore the world of literature, just as children learning language need adults who show them how the language functions in the everyday world (Peterson & Eeds, 1990, p. 12).
