Books and Children Questions

/in /by

Answer the following questions below. Attached will be the documents needed to complete the questions.

Part 1

According to Tielsh Goddard (2011), “Books provide a safe medium for children to explore different concepts, feelings, and attitudes…and to better understand their environment, community, and societal expectations” (p. 57). Per Thibault (2004), “Bibliotherapy and critical literacy are two ways to use books to help children better understand themselves, others, and the world around them” (para. 1).

Read both the Tielsch Goddard 2011 and Thibault 2004 articles (Click on the hyperlink or locate them in the Resources folder). Next, read the following excerpts from Wilhelm’s (2008, 2016) You Gotta BE the Book (and expounded upon by your instructor).

  • In reading, even if we disagree with the author’s projected view, we will see things differently and deepen our understanding. We need this to grow, learn, and understand. This happens by way of “authorial reading,” a way of trying to uncover what the author is saying (without having to reject one’s own thinking!). To let this happen, Booth (1988; as cited in Wilhelm, 2008) indicates we must not be quick to judge, but rather to listen and respect. In this regard, reading is the co-construction of meaning (Bakhtin & Medvedev, as cited in Wilhelm 2008).

Key Issues Affecting the Organization & Accreditation Memorandum

  • How can evidence-based practice approaches be used to improve health care outcomes?
