![]() Whether solitary, dramatic, parallel, social, cooperative, onlooker, object, fantasy, physical, constructive, or games with rules, play, in all of its forms, is a teaching practice that optimally facilitates young children’s development and learning. ![]() This excerpt also illustrates the ways in which play and learning mutually support one another and how teachers connect learning goals to children’s play. ( See below for a discussion of play on a spectrum.) 2018, an idea first introduced by Bergen 1988) helps to resolve old divisions and provides a powerful framework that puts playful learning-rich curriculum coupled with a playful pedagogy-front and center as a model for all early childhood educators. This piece, which is an excerpt from Chapter 5 in Developmentally Appropriate Practice in Early Childhood Programs Serving Children from Birth Through Age 8, Fourth Edition (NAEYC 2022), suggests that defining play on a spectrum (Zosh et al. Newer research, however, allows us to reframe the debate as learning via play-as playful learning. And, in part, it is motivated by older perceptions of play and learning. ![]() In part, the persistent belief that learning must be rigid and teacher directed-the opposite of play-is motivated by the lack of a clear definition of what constitutes playful learning (Zosh et al. Play versus learning represents a false dichotomy in education (e.g., Hirsh-Pasek & Golinkoff 2008). ![]()

I used to read Bengali books of Ananda Marga Schools, where my uncle was a teacher. Over the period of time, I learnt the alphabet and could read the book on my own. I had no idea about the alphabet and couldn’t read anything. The book had lot of rhymes and I memorised each one of them. At the age of 3 or so, my mother decided that she would read from the book, ‘ Hansi Khushi ( হাঁসি খুশি )’ by Jogindranath Sarkar ( যোগীন্দ্রনাথ সরকার ). I was a mischievous child, to put it mildly. ![]() ![]() In fact, I have coined a term for me and my brother, “ Hindi Speaking Maharashtrians born to Bengali Parents”.īut today, I am going to talk about how I learnt to read Bengali. ![]() If you know me, you know that my parents are Bengali but you have seldom heard me talking in Bengali at length. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Praise for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead: "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. It has won top honors for play and playwright in a poll of London Theater critics, and in its printed form it was chosen one of the Notable Books of 1967” by the American Library Association. Its subsequent run in New York brought it the same enthusiastic acclaim, and the play has since been performed numerous times in the major theatrical centers of the world. Tom Stoppard was catapulted into the front ranks of modem playwrights overnight when Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead opened in London in 1967. In Tom Stoppard’s best-known work, this Shakespearean Laurel and Hardy finally get a chance to take the lead role, but do so in a world where echoes of Waiting for Godot resound, where reality and illusion intermix, and where fate leads our two heroes to a tragic but inevitable end. Acclaimed as a modern dramatic masterpiece, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern are Dead is the fabulously inventive tale of Hamlet as told from the worm’s-eve view of the bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters in Shakespeare’s play. ![]() ![]() ![]() Exploring the lives of those often overlooked when the war is remembered, Birdsong takes us below ground during WW1, where the tunneller ‘rats’ are digging towards the Germans and vice versa. That’s not to say that the production is anything near heavily flawed – it has real drama and trauma which grips and provokes reflection on the war and its impact. There’s great merit in working this hard to bring as much of the original text as possible to the stage but in this case, the novel is so vast that when adapted for the stage, it borders on sprawling in places. It’s a marathon rather than a sprint and at 80 minutes for Act 1 and 50 minutes for Act 2, it’s a production which feels Shakespearean in length. This stage version of Sebastian Faulks’ Birdsong is directed by Alastair Whatley with Charlotte Peters and is presented by Birdsong Productions Ltd. ![]() ![]() Tuesday 13th February 2018 at West Yorkshire Playhouse ![]() ![]() ![]() After independence, he left the military at the rank of Captain to return to Dhaka University from where he graduated with Honours in sociology.

Critics and readers alike have been raving over the USA Today bestselling book The Hating Game. ![]() ![]() In the film, he takes a ride out into the country, and though he has to walk around for a while, he locates the box with relative ease. In fact, in the book, he spends weeks searching for the box under the volcanic rock near the old stone wall from Andy's years-old description, all during the downtime from his shift bagging groceries at the store. Instead, he made the part his own and even earned an Oscar nomination for it.Īnother small but significant difference between Red's trajectory in the novel and the film is that he finds the box by searching himself in the book, with less direct guidance from Andy's clues than he has in the film. The sought-after Morgan Freeman even shied away from the role at first because he read the novella and thought, "I can't play an Irishman." Of course, he didn't play one, as the movie creatively worked around including the line by passing it off as a joke. ![]() Red's character was Irish in the novel, not African-American. ![]() ![]() ![]() That was quite a bit less fine. Therefore, it was really fucking refreshing, if you’ll excuse my language, to find a book that let womanhood be synonymous with power. until I recognized that most of my sense of womanhood was tied up in threat and trauma. Specifically, how gender is applied to – and usually forced on – women. For most of my life, I’ve more or less identified as “woman-ish” but also agender, which was fine…. ![]() Gender and womanhood is something that’s been on my mind a lot, lately. It used to be witches were wild as crows and fearless as foxes, because magic blazed bright and the night was theirs. They conversed with dragons on lonely mountops and rode rowan-wood brooms across full moons they charmed the stars to dance beside them on the solstice and rode to battle with familiars at their heels. Witches lurked in every tangled wood and waited at every midnight-crossroad with sharp-toothed smiles. It used to be the air was so thick with magic you could taste it on your tongue like ash. ![]() |
