Literature is an important part of a total language arts programme at all grade levels because of the many benefits it offers.
Literature provides pleasure to listeners and readers. Making time for recreational reading and using high - quality literature help to develop enthusiastic readers and improve achievements. Developing a love of literature as a recreational activity is possibly the most important outcome of a literature programme.
Literature builds experience. Through reading, children expand their horizons through vicarious (引起共鸣的) experiences. They learn about the past as well as the present and learn about a variety of cultures, including their own. They discover the common goals and similar emotions found in people of all times and places. Nory Ryan’s Song by Patricia Reilly Giff, a hard survival story, is set in Ireland during the Irish Potato Famine of 1845.
Literature provides a language model for those who hear and read it. Good literature exposes children to correct sentence patterns, standard story structures, and varied word usage.
Literature develops thinking skills. Discussions of literature bring out reasoning related to sequence; cause and effect; character motivation; predictions; visualization of actions, characters, and settings; critical analysis of the story; and creative responses.
Literature helps children deal with their problems. By finding out about the problems of others through books, children receive insights into dealing with their own problems. Children might identify with Gilly, living angrily in a foster home in Katherine Paterson’s The Great Gilly Hopkins.
