Realistic Fiction Genre Study-coursework

Genre Study: Choose one of the genres* we will be studying in the course (e.g., traditional literature, biography, poetry, informational texts, realistic fiction, historical fiction, fantasy and science fiction). Read widely in that genre. Next, choose 5 picturebooks or 5 novels to analyze. Then, provide an introduction to the genre and a 1-2 page genre analysis for each book in which youevaluate the books in terms of the criteria of the genre. The chapters on your chosen genre in Literature and the Child (Cullinan, Galda, and Sipe, 2009) will help you with your analyses, as well as course lectures and other readings. Please provide a complete bibliographic citation for each book (including the guided reading level) you discuss as well as additional sources. Remember, the purpose is not to summarize the books, but to analyze them using evaluation criteria.
How to choose your books:
•    Consult recommendations from the Cullinan, Galda, and Sipe textbook, Common Core State Standards, and other sources (e.g., the American Library Association, lists of award-winning books, etc.).
•    Choose books written for readers within the B-6 range. • At least four of your books must be published within the last 10 years. • (2002 and above)
•    At least one book must also be on the Common Core State Standards list of Text Exemplars
•    Please do not read more than two books by the same author. • Please choose books that you have not already read as part of class readings or assignments.
*Picturebooks are a format, not a genre. If you are interested in analyzing picturebooks for this assignment, first choose a genre (e.g., historical fiction) and then corresponding picturebooks. Your paper will include analysis of both the picturebook elements (artistic medium, endpages, doublepage spreads, narrative quality, etc) as well as the evaluation criteria for your chosen genre. For historical fiction picturebooks, for example, you would apply the evaluation criteria found in the Cullinan, Galda, and Sipe textbook for both historical fiction and for picturebooks.
