Children’s Books – Kelley Martin

May 20, 2008 kelmart26

I really love children’s books, and our readings have not dulled that love. They have, however, raised my awareness of possible themes in them that can be stereotypical of racial and gender roles. I want to develop a more critical eye when I read them; develop questions for topics of discussion so that children can become better critical thinkers, too. I also want to ensure that I have a more culturally diverse selection of books for my classroom. Some of the ones that I heard in my group today were really good! I look forward to hearing the writings of the entire class. – Kelley
