Title: Body, Education and Children's Literature: An Experience with a Group of 6th Grade Students of English as a Foreign Language
Abstract: This paper presents part of a research project on picture books targeting children. The main research problem lies in the fact that foreign language teaching is very often textbook-based, which means presenting texts as pretexts for learning a language and presenting language in separate parts, as if language were a separate part of the speaking subject. Against this background, the paper aims to present an experience with a group of students who research picture books for enactments. Qualitative data analysis includes a field diary, a dialogue journal, picture books and online contexts for promoting children's literature.
