| Abstract: | The main objective of this study was to evaluate or examine to what
extent children’s literature is practical in second cycle primary schools
of Sokoru Wereda. To do this, quantitative and descriptive survey
method had been employed. Seven second cycle primary schools in
Sokoru Wereda were the target study areas. Teachers, students,
librarians, and principals of the respective schools were data sources,
where by 37 teachers, 71 students, 4 librarians, 7 principals and 2
curriculum experts from Oromia Educational Bureau were partakers.
Questionnaire, interview and observation checklist were the major data
gathering tools. The result shows that most concerned bodies
particularly students and teachers had no the awareness about
children’s literature. Furthermore, absence of training of teachers on
utilization of children’s literature, absence of efforts to familiarize
teachers and students with children’s literature in the school, the
absence of children’s literature in the text books, libraries and market,
failure of teachers in using children’s literature in the class room, the
inadequacy of libraries in all aspects, lack of finance to buy books and
students poor habit of reading are some of the findings of the study and
at the same time they are the factors that affect the practice of
children’s literature in schools. The researcher therefore, has come to
conclude, based on the findings mentioned so far, that second cycle
primary schools had no or little capacity to practice children’s literature
in schools, Finally, some recommendation were forwarded. |
