1)Give a supersentence definition of Traditional Literature. My definition of TL would be a type of story, like folktales, fables, legends or myths, that is passed down family lines in the form of a tradition.
2) How can you use TL in classrooms? Give details. Any time folktales, fables, legends or myths are introduced to students, they will be exposed to TL. For younger ages, a book like the Gingerbread Boy or The Three Billy Goats Gruff or Cinderella. Then there are also books like The Serpent and the Sea, The Hare and the Tortoise, Aladdin, or Robin Hood.
3) Will I use TL in my classroom? Why or why not? I don't think any teacher should not use TL in the classroom. By exposing students to different forms of literature, it gives them a selection of types of reading to possibly become interested in for years to come. How will children learn about things like the supernatural, morals or satire, human emotions, or bravery if they are not given a chance to be exposed to them?

I agree with you dana,I believe the teacher should use TL because it gives student to become more creative. They can change the ending of the story or writing there own story. Good Job on blog!
