Welcome to my blog! I am a Senior at MSU majoring in Education with a focus in social studies. I am currently in the course TE 448- Issues of Diversity in Children's and Adolescent Literature. During this course, we will explore and discuss literature that represents groups that are often underrepresented in children's literature.
I have a passion for teaching and am very excited to start in my own classroom in the next few years. While growing up, the teachers I had and the things I learned in their classrooms greatly affected the rest of my life and education. As a future teacher, I have a huge responsibility to my students to give them the best education that I can. To do this, I wanted to take TE 448 because I believe that is it is necessary to include diverse literature that represents different groups so students can learn about different groups or even to feel like they are represented in the books that are read. I also wanted to take this course to learn as much as I can about different groups that way I will be able to handle all issues, and controversies that this type of literature could bring in the classroom.
Please check back throughout this next semester as I blog about my experiences throughout this course exploring diversity in children's literature! Feel free to visit our class blog.
