I have heard it used to refer to classics (at the secondary level). However, at the elementary level it is often used to refer to literature that is passed down from generation to generation. Examples would include: folktales, tall tales, fairy tales and fables. Here is a web-site that has signs that many elementary teachers use to describe the various genres: http://hill.troy.k12.mi.us/staff/bnewingham/myweb3/Genres.htm You will see the traditional genre listed with a brief definition. I hope this helps! ~Stacey Wicksall Newark Public Library Liaison to the Schools swicksall@pls-net.org Marcia Dressel wrote: > Have you ever heard the term traditional literature?
