As teachers, we should take advantage of that innate attitude and develop age-appropriate experiences in order to make science come alive in unique and meaningful ways for children. However, the latest science literary NAP report conducted by the NSW Education Standards Authority (2015) reflects that even though most students show interest in learning new aspects of science, many of them do not relate science to their daily lives.

Literature can be defined as an expression that relies on four major characteristics: imagination, emotionally compelling capabilities, a written form, and worthiness of being passed down. While these may form the primary basis necessary for a writing or group of writings to be considered literature, not all literature expresses these characteristics in the same way. The concept of literature was established to allow readers to better understand what makes a writing worth taking the time to read. For example, some forms of literature are meant to express a particular groups origin by means of creative beginnings like the Iroquois and Navajo creation stories. Other forms of literature, such as the Winnebago Trickster Tales, might intend to

In “I’ll Give You The Sun” by Jandy Nelson the author employs motif and tone to explore the literary theories of Freudian psychoanalysis and queer theory. Sigmund Freud in his work talked of peoples unconscious desires and defenses, id-ego and how it drives motivation versus superego and how it drives judgment, and the Oedipus complex and how the childhood affects adulthood (Purdue OWL: Sigmund Freud).

The story “Rip Van Winkle” by Washington Irving is a moral allegory; a story that represents an abstract or spiritual but is portrayed in a literal way. “Rip Van Winkle” is a tale that is comprised of multiple abstract and hidden meanings, which are all cloaked by material forms. Irving’s use of setting, symbolism, and characterization help to produce a tale that intertwines mysticism with history. Together these create a deeper meaning behind the life of a simple man oppressed by his wife, truly standing as a symbol for the ruling of the British crown over the Thirteen Colonies.
