Abstract

Reading encouragement is a transversal subject present throughout the entire educational stage of any student from early childhood education through primary education to Secondary Education and higher education. In this chapter, the authors intersperse the pleasure of reading in another language (English) and the reflection on the values transmitted by each of the selected stories. The main purpose is to teach a list of values to students in primary education but using this selection of stories as a basis to reach the internalization of these values. We cannot forget that they are still children and that we have to adapt the contents and learning channels to their evolutionary stage. By using fantastic characters, the concepts are extrapolated in a different way, making it easier for children to internalize the values. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to implement a didactic proposal based on the use of stories in English for values education in a group of children in the fifth grade of primary school.
