In this blog I intend to introduce the idea of using Children's Literature in the classroom for professional teachers in the area of TESOL.

By looking into Children's Literature I will look at the many applications that can be applied in and outside the classroom to make a more productive environment for learning.

This site is a great resource for a comprehensive guide to English-Language Children's book awards from all over the world. Please check it out for more information, -http://www.ucalgary.ca/~dKbrown/awards.html


Everyone interested in Children's Literature should take an active role in maintaining a current insight into the world of news and current events as it is our children who are growing up in these times and we as teachers should be well informed.


Authors Pat Mora and Laura Resau and illustrator Rafael Lopez received the 2007 Americas Award for Children's and Young Adult Literature at the 15th annual award presentation from The Library of Congress.



Another videos you may be interested in watching is related to the CBC Book Club Presenting The TD Canadian Children's Literature Awards.





If you are a budding writer or looking to break into the field then it might be helpful to get an idea of the expectations. Sit back, grab a coffee and take in the presentation.
