Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Pedagogy - School Pedagogics, Martin Luther University, language: English, abstract: This paper uses the picture book "The Great Dictionary Factory" by Agnès de Lestrade and Valeria Decampo to highlight how children can be supported on the path of their own writing. How do children learn to gain experience in the world of writing and discover the world and themselves in the process? What preconditions must be in place for writing to take place? What impulses are possible and suitable to enable children to make the transition from the real world of the classroom to the world of imagination? How is it possible to open up a space in which children think about language, get to know words as something valuable with which one can discover a lot and learn to understand themselves as language creators to whom words obey?

The Day I Was Erased

The brand new read-in-one-sitting mystery from the author of unforgettable bestseller The Goldfish Boy. Eleven-year-old Maxwell is always, always in trouble. Roaming the town with his beloved pet dog Monster (who he rescued as a puppy from being run over) as a way to escape his parents' constant sniping at home, he's a menace to the neighbours and teachers at school. While visiting an elderly neighbour, Maxwell comes across a mysterious cabinet of curiosities and suddenly finds himself erased from his life: it's as if he's never existed. Able to walk around anonymously might be great at first - finally, no-one is yelling at him! - but he soon realises that he misses his old life and, crucially, if he had never existed, then he wouldn't have swooped in and stopped Monster the dog from being hit by that car... Maxwell needs to find a way to reverse his erasure, with the help of his best friend Charlie and his sister Bex, who need a whole heap of persuading that this weird kid they've never clapped eyes on is actually super close to them in his former life...

As concepts around traditional literacy education evolve and become more culturally and linguistically relevant and responsive, the connections between digital storytelling and disciplinary literacy warrant considered exploration.
