Through class activities, interviews with authors, and workshops the books read are evaluated. Fairytales, fables, short stories, poems, and memoirs are read. The texts selected are examined according to their genres. Grammar rules are taught through these texts. Writing exercises such as poems, short stories, and fairytales are carried out.
