About

Sylvia Vardell discussed effective strategies using children's literature for teaching children in K-5 and beyond. She examined the different genres of children's literature and talked about the skills or challenges each type brings to the readers. Sylvia also talked about new ways authors are approaching literature by blending things like poetry and nonfiction and how the web can help students find resources such as audiobooks or books on film; all while reminding you that "fundamentally, children's literature is just for fun."
