| contents | Children's Acquisition of Literary Genre: Science Fiction versus Fantasy. Shechter, Myriam Schecter, Sandra R. Classroom Research Fantasy Grade 5 Intermediate Grades Literary Genres Reading Material Selection Reading Writing Relationship Science Fiction Student Writing Models Writing Instruction Writing Processes Writing Research Using ethnographic observations of 30 children in a multicultural inner-city fifth grade class over a period of one year, a study examined the children's classroom interactions with the literary genres of science fiction and fantasy, investigating their sequential acquisition of the constitutive elements of the two genres as well as their abilities to differentiate between these genres along dimensions such as true/untrue or possible/impossible. The study also examined the relationship between the literature children read and the stories they write, and traced the evolution of children's constructs of genre with cumulative exposure to a genre-based curriculum. Field notes were taken on the teacher's structuring of classroom curriculum, the participant formats of Language Arts activities, and the literacy environment (books in the classroom and library, videos, audio tapes, field trips) in which the acquisition of genre was embedded. Data also included lesson transcripts, and transcripts of learners' formal and informal interviews with the teacher and a researcher. The children's stories were collected after they had read within a particular genre. Findings suggest that a combination of inter- and intra-genre exploration across different media, facilitated by context-sensitive pedagogical strategies, best promotes the extension of children's notions of genre. (Two student stories and 26 references are appended.) (MM) |
