Both the 1951 and 2010 Disney version of Alice in Wonderland differ significantly from the original books. In this lecture I show that one of the most important differences is the genre of the story that is told in each of these.

For today's Kids' Writing Workshop, I shared excerpts from five different books that are available to kids as prizes for registering for summer reading at Pasadena.beanstack.org. We learned different things from each book:
-We learned about tone from Front Desk
-We learned about motif from Gabby Garcia's Ultimate Playbook
-We learned about the hook from The Last Kids on Earth and the Cosmic Beyond
-We learned about fantasy/world-building from The Serpent's Secret
-We learned about mystery/suspense writing from Finding Mighty

Short stories can be written in a variety of genres, including romance, horror, mystery, science fiction, and more. They can offer insight into the human experience and explore complex issues and themes in a concise and powerful way.
Reading and writing short stories can be a rewarding experience, allowing the reader and writer to explore different perspectives and emotions within a short and contained narrative. They can offer a snapshot into a character's life, a moment in time, or a glimpse into a fictional world, leaving a lasting impression on the reader.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. The Day the Crayons Quit
by Drew Daywalt
Poor Duncan just wants to color.
But when he opens his box of
crayons, he finds only letters, all
saying the same thing: His
crayons have had enough! They
quit! Beige Crayon is tired of
playing second fiddle to Brown
Crayon. Black wants to be used
for more than just outlining. Blue
needs a break from coloring all
those bodies of water. And
Orange and Yellow are no longer
speaking—each believes he is the
true color of the sun.

3. The First Drawing
by Mordicai Gerstein
Imagine you were born before
the invention of drawing, more
than thirty thousand years ago.
You would live with your whole
family in a cave and see woolly
mammoths walk by! You might
even see images of animals
hidden in the shapes of clouds
and rocks. You would want to
share these pictures with your
family, but wouldn't know how.
Who would have made the
world's first drawing? Would it
have been you?

4. The King of Little Things
by Bil Lepp
Long ago in a faraway realm, the
King of Little Things ruled happily
over all things small, from
buttons to beetles, from marbles
to macaroni. When King
Normous thinks he has finally
become the ruler of all the
world, he is enraged to learn that
the King of Little Things still
reigns happily in his tiny
kingdom. Normous sends his
army to defeat this upstart, but
he finds he cannot outfight or
outwit a king who holds sway
over the little things of the
world. After all, it is the little
things that keep the big things
going.

5. Lost and Found
by Bill Harley
When Justin loses the special hat his
grandmother made for him, he looks
everywhere he can think of to find it.
Everywhere, that is, except the lost and
found. Mr. Rumkowsky, the old school
custodian, is the keeper of all the lost
and found items, and everyone is afraid
of him, including Justin.
With his grandmother coming to visit
soon, his mom upset, and the hat
nowhere in sight, Justin finally musters
the courage to enter Mr. Rumkowsky's
domain. There he discovers a whole
world of treasures - lost items Justin's
friends (and generations of children
before them) have been too afraid to
claim. Things keep getting weirder and
weirder, until way down at the bottom
of Rumkowsky's giant box Justin
unearths something completely
unexpected...

7. Red Kite, Blue Kite
by Ji-li Jiang
When Tai Shan and his father, Baba, fly
kites from their roof and look down at
the crowded city streets below, they feel
free, like the kites. Baba loves telling Tai
Shan stories while the kites--one red,
and one blue--rise, dip, and soar
together. Then, a bad time comes.
People wearing red armbands shut down
the schools, smash store signs, and
search houses. Baba is sent away, and Tai
Shan goes to live with Granny Wang.
Though father and son are far apart, they
have a secret way of staying close. Every
day they greet each other by flying their
kites-one red, and one blue-until Baba
can be free again, like the kites.
Inspired by the dark time of the Cultural
Revolution in China, this is a soaring tale
of hope that will resonate with anyone
who has ever had to love from a
distance.

but at night she's a brilliant inventor
of gizmos and gadgets who dreams of

moment and then crashes, Rosie
deems the invention a failure. On the
contrary, Aunt Rose insists that
Rosie's contraption was a raging
success. You can only truly fail, she
explains, if you quit.

His real name was John Chapman.
He grew apples.

more than two hundred years after he

Why should we call him a hero?

wonders just awaiting discovery.
Fascinating facts about all the

by Fiona Robinson
All day, Whale swims through the ocean,
wearing a poster advertising the big
upcoming art exhibition. He visits the eel
who wriggles abstract patterns in the
sand, the squid who paints with ink, and
the hammerhead shark who builds
sculptures from salvage. Whale sees his
friends’ confidence and creativity and
wishes he could be an artist too, but he
doesn’t know what to make and insists
he’s too ungainly to create art. Then one
day, with the unexpected help of some
bioluminescent plankton, he discovers
his own distinct point of view and talent.
From the award-winning author-
illustrator of What Animals Really Like,
hailed by School Library Journal as
“sublime silliness,” comes another
inspiring tale about defying expectation
and finding the artist within.
