Conclusion
I learned different genres of children’s literature, characteristics of books, activities for students, and teaching topics according to their age to write my own stories, and instructions, to design appropriate classroom materials, also, I learned to read aloud, techniques, and vocal warming exercises.
I also learned the benefits of reading in school, punctuation, style and creativity, and some independent tasks and activities of pre-reading, during reading, and post-reading, which we can use in the classroom to benefit the learning of all students.
