| "Beyond
the Beanstalk" may look like a textbook, but don't let the glossary and
appendix mislead you, Lynn Rubright's book is not just for teachers desperately
trying to gain the attention of students suckled on audios and visuals
and decibels and funk. This book is for teachers, yes, but also for grandpas,
camp counselors, mommies, rabbis, and soothsayers -- the whole village
raising that child you hear about. Telling stories bolsters learning, says Rubright: people remember stories long after sums are forgotten, grammar has shifted and history has marshaled off to war. Rubright, a storyteller based in St. Louis, tells stories to prove her point." |
