What is traditional Literature?
Traditional Literature is the writtan form of stories that are part of the oral tradition of a culture, culture can be an ethnic group within a national border. (p 123)
This is when oral stories become written ones.
For example Cinderela and The Three Little Pigs. They are both traditional stories because there are SOOOOOOOOOO many versions of these books. They are stories that have been told for years, decades, centries and even longer than that too. Traditional literature elements are as follows plot, setting, characterization, style, theme, motifs and variants. Every culture has it's own style of traditional literature.
Traditional story books can get boring after a I really can not do that with this type of literature I am the type of person that needs more excitement that allows me to go beyond out of this world.

That's interesting, but remember, it's not what WE want but it's what our kids want. We have to grab books from all different genres. <3 ya!!
ReplyDeleteSomething I often have to remember is, it may be boring to me because I have heard it over and over, but that does not mean my children or students will have heard it as often.
