Children, Film and Literacy explores the role of film in children's
lives. The films children engage in provide them with imaginative
spaces in which they create, play and perform familiar and
unfamiliar, fantasy and everyday narratives and this narrative play
is closely connected to identity, literacy and textual practices.
Family is key to the encouragement of this social play and, at
school, the playground is also an important site for this activity.
However, in the literacy classroom, some children encounter a
discontinuity between their experiences of narrative at home and
those that are valued in school. Through film children develop
understandings of the common characteristics of narrative and the
particular 'language' of film. This book demonstrates the ways in
which children are able to express and develop distinct and complex
understandings of narrative, that is to say, where they can draw on
their own experiences (including those in a moving image form).
Children whose primary experiences of narrative are moving images
face particular challenges when their experiences are not given
opportunities for expression in the classroom, and this has urgent
implications for the teaching of literacy.
