Description
The present communication aims to analyze how children's fantasy literature is utilized didactically in fourth-grade textbooks. We will be focusing, on one hand, on examining the selection of fantasy texts by textbook authors, and on the other hand, we will pay attention to the types of methods and didactic techniques associated with a good understanding and practice of fantasy literary texts, relating to the needs and curiosities of contemporary students. Moreover, the selection of texts will also reveal something about the concern of textbook authors to connect students with the challenges of contemporary literature, as well as the level of openness towards tasks involving dual referencing to content - theoretical and pragmatic (the interactive/playful dimension of workloads, the appeal to Multiple Intelligences Theory).
