Overall Experience

I have learned a lot through this course about children's literature and myself. I have learned the genres of books that I usually stick to, and the new genres that I never would have tried reading. I have found a multitude of information about navigating libraries and choosing books. The most important thing that I have learned it that literature can be worked into all types of activities and every subject. I hope that I can inspire students to be passionate about reading the way that I am. I have learned that as a teacher, I will not only take the story from books, but the meaning of it. I found that I really focused on meanings through this semester, and learned a lot by doing so.
