  • SSS Campaigns at Spelling Bees
    Spelling Bees Spelling Progress Bulletin. Spring 1972. Item 6: "After World War II, the American occupation forces in Germany tried to introduce the spelling bee as a part of the democratization program but they failed because of the uniformly high level of spelling prowess." Lessons in the phonetic values of letters works very well in Europe, but probably that is because the languages involved have more consistently phonetic spellings than has English. 2003. SSS members picket the US National Spelling Bee. 2004 Spelling Bee pickets American Literacy Council and Simplified Spelling Society, May 29, 2004. Press release. SPELLING BEE TO BE PICKETED. Not all spellers heading for Washington, DC, for the National Spelling Bee on June 1-3 think English spelling is a good thing that should be celebrated. While spectators and judges inside the Grand Hyatt Hotel will be pondering the spellings of obscure words, and admiring the efforts of contestants, outside on the street some members of the American Literacy Council (ALC) and the Simplified Spelling Society (SSS) will be trying to convince passers-by that English spelling is a problem that needs fixing. Like those inside, they [may] admire the efforts of contestants, but they will have signs and sandwich boards with slogans such as "I'm thru with through" and "Enuf is enuf. Enough is too much". Their aim is to alert parents, educators, politicians, business people, and others concerned about the unacceptable level of illiteracy among English-speakers, to the fact that a prime cause for this is English spelling. One of the picketers, ALC chair and SSS member, Alan Mole, from Boulder, Colorado, puts it this way: "Our odd spelling retains words like cough, bough, through and though.

  • Dr. Ed's Movie Reviews 2006
    Dr. Ed’s Movie Reviews 2006 Yardeni Research, Inc. Dr. Edward Yardeni 516-972-7683 [email protected] Please visit our sites at www.yardeni.com blog.yardeni.com thinking outside the box A History of Violence (+) isn't boring, and it is violent. It is a bit too predictable. Akeelah and the Bee (+++) is a feel-good movie. It's about an 11 year-old girl from an LA ghetto who aspires to win the national spelling bee. It's a bit like "Rocky," though Sylvester Stallone can barely speak English let alone spell "concierge." (Akeelah actually mispelled this word in the movie, but was judged correct.) Keke Palmer, who plays the little girl, and Laurence Fishburne, who plays her coach, are true champions. All the Kings Men (- -) is really awful as the entire cast of great actors’ talents are wasted on a really poorly directed and edited remake of a classic. Sean Penn overacts. James Gandolfini seems like he walked onto the wrong set. Babel (+++) is one of the most intense and gripping movies I have ever seen. It is like the globalization of "Crash," another excellent and gripping movie about how we humans are so interconnected with both good and bad consequences. Borat (- - -) WARNING: Do not see "Borat." Do not let your kids see it. It is among the worst and most tasteless movies of all times! Casino Royale (++) is actually one of the better 007 movies. Daniel Craig plays James Bond better than all the previous actors with the exception of Sean Connery, of course. I also liked that this latest Bond movie was faster paced, better written, and just more entertaining than some of the last few double-O spy thrillers, which were on the boring side and tended to be caricatures of the franchise.

  • 1 AKEELAH and the BEE About the Production One Could Say That the Origins for This Inspirational Drama Began As Far Back As 1994
    AKEELAH AND THE BEE About The Production One could say that the origins for this inspirational drama began as far back as 1994 when writer/director Doug Atchison found himself captivated by “The National Spelling Bee” on ESPN. While watching a basketball game, he channel-surfed during a commercial break and came upon the spelling bee airing live on the sports network. He became rapt and even caught himself trying to spell the words and rooting for the kids. Atchison noticed that most of the contestants seemed to come from privileged backgrounds whose families had the resources to allow their kids to pursue this unusual activity. Says Atchison, “It struck me that there was a story to tell about a child who had the natural ability for this kind of activity but who didn't have access to the resources or coaching to pursue it as these other kids had.” It was then that he decided to write a screenplay. Time passed and Atchison worked on other projects. But he could never quite shake the story of a kid, named Akeelah, from the back of his head. Every year he would watch the spelling bee and get the impulse to develop her story further. “I would watch and think about her. I would start telling my friends and my family the story about this little girl and the spelling bee. But I never wrote it.” In fact, he kept thinking of reasons why he shouldn’t, even questioning whether he was the right person to do it. When someone pointed out to him that he was afraid to write it, Atchison had a revelation.

  • THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT of ENGLISH the URBAN-SCHOOL FILM BENJAMIN L. ROWLES Spring
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH THE URBAN-SCHOOL FILM BENJAMIN L. ROWLES Spring 2018 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in English with honors in English Reviewed and approved* by the following: Iyunolu Osagie Professor of English and African Studies Thesis Supervisor Christopher Reed Professor of English and Visual Culture Honors Adviser *Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This study analyzes the politics of representation in recent urban-school films released in the United States since the year 2000. It first examines fictional films, finding that directors’ adherence to exceptionalist narratives precludes a systemic view of educational inequality. Seeking alternatives, it turns to education documentaries and “quasimentaries,” which provide a more holistic picture of the American school system but, by avoiding exceptionalism, may deter general audiences. Finally, the study concludes with discussion of HBO’s The Wire and asks whether viewer expectations impose limits on the potential of critical education films. Drawing upon cultural studies and film theory, the author makes a case for nuance in representations of high-poverty education. ii Dedicated to my former students at Theodore Roosevelt K-8 and Universal Alcorn Middle Years Academy iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ......................................................................................... iv Introduction Education and Popular

  • A Wheelock Family Theatre Study Guide
    a Wheelock Family Theatre Study Guide thanks and applause to The Yawkey Foundation sponsor of the student matinee series 200 Riverway │ Boston, MA 02215-4176│box office: 617.879.2300 │ www.wheelockfamilytheatre.org Synopsis of the Play Eleven-year-old Akeelah Anderson wakes up crying to the sound of gunfire and sirens outside her bedroom window. Her mother rushes to comfort her. Gail, a strong woman who loves her children fiercely, is contending with a demanding work life and distracted with anxiety about the “pathway of failure” Akeelah’s brother Reggie seems to be following. It’s clear that they are both worried about Reggie, and that the gunshots carry a painful significance beyond the moment. He arrives safely and keeps Akeelah company as she tries to fall asleep. We learn that Akeelah’s and Reggie’s father is gone, and that wearing his hat is a source of comfort and strength for Akeelah; a reminder of happier times when the two spelled together. In the morning, we meet Georgia, a flashy dresser and Akeelah’s best friend, as well as other neighbors in her 709 neighborhood of Chicago—Ruth, “a wig-wearing woman who always looks dressed for church or an upscale nightclub,” and Willie, the super, a kind-hearted yet slow- moving man. Akeelah and Georgia head to school, where Akeelah is assailed by her “biggest tormentor” Rhonda and spends a difficult day competing in the Southside School Spelling Bee. Akeelah excels at spelling—and wins the bee—but is mocked by the other students for her achievement.

  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This Chapter Explains About the Background of the Study, Statement of the Problem, Purpose of the Study
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter explains about the background of the study, statement of the problem, purpose of the study, significance of the study, scope and limitation, and definition of the key terms. 1.1 Background of the Study Literature is very important for human’s life. Basically, literature is human expression. So it is true that literature is one of the important parts of human’s life. Literature and human beings cannot be separated each other because they are interrelated. Human beings can express their feelings, thoughst, ideas, and experiences in literature. Not only for expressing their feeling but also the people can get valuable and useful knowledge by learning literature. According to Moody (1968:2), literature springs from our inborn love of telling story, of arranging words in pleasing patterns, and of expressing in words some special aspects of human experience. It means that literature tells about human’s experience and love by using pleasing words so it will make the readers easier to understand literature. It is clear that literature is related with human life and the readers can see the reflection of real life. Furthermore, according to Hardjana (1981:14), literature is the standard of expression from what the people have shown in life, have last in thought and felt about aspect of life which interest in directly and forcefully. It is an expression of life 1 2 passing through language form. In other words, literature was born because of fundamental motivation of human beings interest in literary works. There are some literary works which can be elaborated into deep analysis.

BURNETTE (Under the Direction of John Weaver) ABSTRACT African American students are significantly underrepresented in gifted education programs. This dissertation creates a space where gifted education, African American students, media literacy, and teacher perceptions intersect in the field of curriculum studies. Media literacy will be utilized to critique popular films by gifted endorsement teacher-students and myself. Due to the low number of states that require pre-service teachers to study gifted characteristics of children it is left up to gifted teacher endorsement programs to train teachers. By using media literacy to examine films in gifted teacher endorsement programs, I assert that the under-representation of African American students in the referral process for gifted education programs can be positively impacted.
