Contemporary Realistic Fiction

1) Create a super sentence definition of Contemporary Realistic Fiction.
Contemporary realistic fiction is a realistic story that is consistent with the lives of real people, but it is not always true.

2) How might I use this in the classroom?
I will have books avaliable in my classroom because I feel it is an important for the children to read. It's a good way to introduce students to different real life topics, even if sometimes they are not completely true. I just think this will help the students understand what goes on in the real world. It's can help students that maybe experincing something similar get a better understanding of what is really going on. I think having books like this avaliable for the students to read is great because they can maybe relate to the story lines.
