Students use the basals on Mondays and retell the textson paper. They spend the rest of the week writing stories, readingthem, and sharing them with other students. Eve" week they havea real radio show where they read and tell their own stories, singsongs, and ask their listeners to write them letters. By the end of theyear they have written 11 different kinds of stories,as well as articles, letters, plays, books, and puppet shows. All the storiesare collected in a storybook which is retainedas an example for next year's students. Students keep track of theirown progress by referring to a list of essential reading skills insidetheir individual reading folders. The most important benefitof this approach is that student motivation to read is high,unlike the low motivation which accompanied the purely basal reader approach.Every student in the teacher's class is reading avidly,none is failing, and absenteeism is down.

Ms. Oxendine isa second grade teacher at G.R. Hampton Elementary School in Knox County,Ken- tucky, and a member of the Eastern Kentucky Teachers' Network. PRODUCED BY THE POLICY AND PLANNING CENTER 1 APPALACHIA EDUCATIONAL LABORATORY 4 Dick and Jane are Dead Basal Reader Takes a Back Seat to Student Writings I want to show you something. I brought one of my most prized possessions with me today: A basal reader'. This is a MacMillan reader. It's called Secrets and Surprises, and it'sa third-grade basal reader. My sister teaches in Florida. She took the story that begins on page 186 to her principal and said, "I do not want to teach this story," and she told him why. And he said, "Well, I'm sorry but it's in the book and you have to teach it." So, I'm going to share some of this story with you. Then you can understand why my sister Dora Susan--named after my two grandmothers--felt so strongly against this particular selection. By the way, there are some articles about Appalachia in basal readers today: coal mining, broom making, and Granny's quilts, and there's a story called "Daniel's Duck". It's about a little boy who carves a duck he isn't satisfied with. Those are the only stories that I have found in today's basal readers that even barely resemble us. This story, written by Lawrence Swinburne, is being read by children all across the United States and in many t ceign countries. Thousands of children daily are reading this story in MacMillan's Secrets and Surprises. The story begins with a little girl and her father who have left the mountains and moved to a city. He's looking for better work and a better life. Now I'll read some of it to you. One day a new girl came to Rosie's class. "I think your name is Laura," said Mrs. Rogers. "Is that correct?" "Yes. Yes so, ma'am", said the girl. "But my folks back home call 2 me Laurie."And the kids in the class didn't know quite what to make of Laurie. Her ways were different. Some of the kids laughed at her, and others stayed away from her."I know the others think I'm funny," said Laurie. "I don't talk like them, and I don't know the answers to all the questions the teacher asks. But I've been living back in the hills and people don't go to school much there." "Aren't there any schools in the hills," said Rosie. "There are," said Laurie. "But Daddy didn't like to send us too much because sometimes we didn't have shoes or the right clothes to wear. Daddy came to the city, you know, to get work and try to change his luck."And then she even goes as far as to say: "I wish I could talk like you:" And then on over in the story, the kids make the comment that they thought Laurie would never learn. They thought she would never catch up. And it just keeps on going. It's really bad. She can't count money. The pictures/illustrations in this story are as degrading as the words themselves. She's got long, stringy hair--real unkempt; a homemade dress with ric rac trim. They go to this place called Pioneer State Park, and Laurie doesn't have the 3 that it take to go on this field trip. So she babysits and sells pop bottles. But she brings her money to school and she has more than 3 because she cannot count.And when they get to Pioneer State Park, there's some remarkable things that Laurie sees there--very remarkable things that make me know that Lawrence Swinburne has never set foot in the hills or the mountains anywhere, except maybe in a dream. 6 3 The first thing they saw was a wcman spinning on a spinning wheel. Remember, this is a modern day setting, and these things are supposed to be common today occurrences. Laurie says, "Why she's making cloth like we used to back home." And then they saw candles being made and Laurie said, "We did that a lot but I never liked that too much, though."And then there was a man making a broom. And Laurie says, "Boy, that makes me homesick to watch him do that. We used to make brooms like that back home out of a special kind of cornstalk."And then they find Mountain Laurel and chicory growing in this place, and Lauriesays they made coffee out of chicory back home every day. Next, they got lost. I knew this would happen because this story had to have a Granny Clampett-hero ending. Did you feel that coming, too? While they were lost, Laurie takes her shoe string and a safety pin, and she catches two fish and cooks them. The girls even say that's the best fish they've ever tasted. Before she fixes the fish, she rubs two sticks together and "had a fire going in no time at all:"Now that's scientifically impossible.Finally, they do .the only sensible thing that's believable in this story. They follow a stream -- downstream- -until they eventually come out of the woods, and there's a park ranger.And the park ranger says, "You're a smart girl. You know a lot about the woods."And Laurie says, "It's nothing much to know when you've been brought up in the woods.

  • Elephant Wake by Joey Tremblay Sixth Draft Post -Production
    Elephant Wake By Joey Tremblay Post-production draft. 0 Elephant Wake By Joey Tremblay Sixth draft Post -Production The play is set in a fictional French hamlet called Ste. Vierge. Ste. Vierge is for the most part a ghost-town situated on a gravel road somewhere on the Saskatchewan Prairie. Jean Claude is its sole remaining resident. He is about 68 years old. Obviously the piece is a “one-man show”. However it is important to note that, in spirit, the audience plays a significant role in creating the environment of the play. Jean Claude speaks to them directly and in real time. They become and an essential part of the action. The performer playing Jean Claude should always be aware of the presence of the actual audience in real time. He should think of the monologue as the musical score – the chord charts. But he should be like a jazz musician who uses specific moments (during transitions between beats) to riff on the play’s themes to create improvised solos in dialogue with the audience. The following text will try to reflect as much as possible where these moments can take place. The feel of the performance should always feel fresh and of the moment. He should come across as a man telling his stories in a stream of conscious sort of way. We should lose the sense that the actor has memorized any lines. It is important that the design of the piece provide the actor with objects from the past that trigger memory for the actor. He is surrounded by the bones of his past.

Sons and Lovers Part One 2 of 801 Sons and Lovers CHAPTER I THE EARLY MARRIED LIFE OF THE MORELS ‘THE BOTTOMS’ succeeded to ‘Hell Row". Hell Row was a block of thatched, bulging cottages that stood by the brookside on Greenhill Lane. There lived the colliers who worked in the little gin-pits two fields away. The brook ran under the alder trees, scarcely soiled by these small mines, whose coal was drawn to the surface by donkeys that plodded wearily in a circle round a gin. And all over the countryside were these same pits, some of which had been worked in the time of Charles II, the few colliers and the donkeys burrowing down like ants into the earth, making queer mounds and little black places among the corn-fields and the meadows. And the cottages of these coal-miners, in blocks and pairs here and there, together with odd farms and homes of the stockingers, straying over the parish, formed the village of Bestwood. Then, some sixty years ago, a sudden change took place. The gin-pits were elbowed aside by the large mines of the financiers. The coal and iron field of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire was discovered. Carston, 3 of 801 Sons and Lovers Waite and Co. appeared. Amid tremendous excitement, Lord Palmerston formally opened the company’s first mine at Spinney Park, on the edge of Sherwood Forest.

We’re at the home of Gunther Schuller on Dudley Road in Newton Centre, Massachusetts, to do an oral history for the Smithsonian Oral History Jazz Program, if that’s the right title. Close enough? Hello Gunther. Schuller: Hello. Good to see you. Schwartz: Thank you for opening your doors to us. We should start at the beginning, or as far back to the beginning as we can go. I’d love to have you talk about your childhood, your growing up in New York, and whatever memories you have – your parents, who they are, who they were – things like that to get us started. Schuller: I was born in New York. Many people think I was born in Germany, with my German name and I speak fluent German, but I was born in New York City. My parents came over from Germany in 1923. They were not married. They didn’t know each other. They just happened to leave more or less the same time, when the inflation in Germany was so crazy that a loaf of bread cost not 40, 400, 4,000, but 4-million marks.
