3321: Blog #9
Contemporary fiction implies that everything in a realistic story is consistent with the lives of real people in our contemporary world, super natural does not exist, and the story does not need to always be true. Contemporary realistic fiction can be used in a classroom to help children through certain issues that they may be going through at home. These stories can also be used to teach multicultural topics, controversial issues, and people. We should always take into consideration the age group that we will use these stories for. Especially when using these stories to teach controversial issues, we must really make sure that the stories are age appropriate.

I like what you said " to concider the age group" but we also could see where they come from and sometimes childen are exposed to much more in life according to where they live. I think this is a hard topic. We wouldnt want to give the children ideas or I just dont know what direction or how the information might be taken.
