Kenzie's Realistic Fiction

"David Goes to School" By David Shannon is a cute funny short story that is full of mischievous acts of David when he goes to school. David tends to break the school rules, and doesn't realize he will soon will face the consequences for his actions. Some of the things he does is, flys paper planes in the classroom, colors the desk when its not allowed, and doesn't listen to the teacher. But sooner before he realizes he has to stay after school and make up for all his mistakes he has made by washing all the desk and clean the classroom.

This is a contemporary Realistic Fiction because this can be applied to everyday living of new students that attend to schools for the very first time and now they will face the different consequences. As a teacher later, on I can teach my students how they can learn to follow the rules in the classroom, because if they don't I can show somewhat what kind of consequences they can face.

This social justice of this book is self awareness because David has to realize because of his actions in the classroom, he will have to face the consequences. The consequences will teach him because of his action, he has to work and do things he doesn't want to do so to avoid not facing the consequences, he has to behave in the classroom. Overall this story is very well known and has many other stories but this one has always been my favorite book growing up because its a cute little story that shows the whole point of the book in a very proper kind of way and setting and the pictures in the book make a very clear understanding!
