Authentic Texts in Kindergarten Information on how each title reflects multiculturalism and “children like me” aspects can be found in the Text Complexity Analysis. UNPARALLELED ACCESS TO AUTHENTIC, CULTURALLY RELEVANT TEXTS We believe that every child deserves to read and can read authentic trade books. That’s why Scholastic Literacy incorporates real books by acclaimed authors into every area of the literacy block. If we only provide children with texts exclusively designed for instruction in school, we risk children believing that real, engaging, and authentic books are not for them. The more we can expose children to quality literature and nonfiction, the more we can help them build confidence as capable and engaged independent thinkers, readers, and learners.

  • Spreading the Light of Hanukkah Amidst This
    As a teenager, I loved classic science-fiction television shows like Star Trek and The Twilight Zone . I remember countless late nights glued to the TV, listening to Rod Serling open the show: “ It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the T wilight Zone .” Its episodes were clever and engaging. Imagine a world, where the beauty standards were reversed and what we think of as ugly and disfigured is the normative standard and someone whom we think of as gorgeous is deemed horrific. Or the classic episode the Odyssey of Flight 33 where a plane somehow gets sucked into a time vortex and instead of being in the year 1961 when they took off, it is 1940 and there is no runway long enough to land on, no way to get back to the future…. (You could see where later 80s movie writers, like Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale , found their inspiration!) This was a show that pushed the limits of our imagination and like all great literature allowed for the “willing suspension of disbelief,” as Aristotle first explained it. This allows for the audience watching a play (or reading a novel or seeing a show or a movie) to enter into a space where we can leave reality behind, and enjoy the stimulation of the art.

  • Living in the Twilight Zone
    NWAnews.com :: Northwest Arkansas' News Source 3/4/09 12:28 AM In the Zone BY RON WOLFE Posted on Saturday, February 28, 2009 URL: http://www.nwanews.com/adg/Style/253699/ You open this door with the key of imagination. But what if you've lost the key? Keys disappear, and even stranger things happen at home. Rod Serling knew. His classic TV series, The Twilight Zone, claimed to be set in the fifth dimension. But some of the creepiest episodes deal with things commonly found around the house: mirrors (that show something out of place), telephones (that speak for themselves), children's toys (that come to life). "I believe Serling himself thought of home as a haven," says Andrew Polak of the Rod Serling Memorial Foundation in Serling's hometown of Binghamton, N.Y. But in many of the stories that Serling and other writers imagined for The Twilight Zone, the house "was a convenient place for things to go wrong." Serling generally set his stories in the most ordinary circumstances. Home, especially, made the unexpected all the more, well - Twilight Zone-ish. "The strangeness of the known, rather than the unknown, can be very effective," Polak says. Viewers "could put themselves in the situation, driving the impact home." In "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street," for example, good neighbors turn against each other when the electricity goes on and off at random. One house has lights, but the place next door doesn't. The power company might explain what happened: houses on different circuits, repair crews doing the best they can.
