Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear?

"Elephant, Elephant what do you hear? I hear a leopard snarling in my ear."

T requires sound effects for this book so it's never migrated to the bedtime/naptime book selection.

ED WOOD (1994)

Director: Tim Burton Cinematography: Stefan Czapsky

[schlock-luster-video]

On October 7, 1994, Ed Wood debuted in the United States and Canada.

[denimbex1986]

'Oppenheimer is one of the biggest movies premiering this week and with Christopher Nolan as director and a star-studded cast including Cillian Murphy, Florence Pugh and Robert Downey Jr, the movie is set for global success.

The film follows the story of American scientist J Robert Oppenheimer and his role in the development of the Atomic Bomb. It is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book, ‘American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, written by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin.

Cillian,47, plays the titular role alongside Florence, 27, who plays the woman he had an extra-marital affair with - Jean Tatlock. Ahead of the film's premiere the actors have faced backlash over their on-screen relationship and their 20-year age gap.

Age gap relationship on or off screen certainly isn’t anything new to Hollywood so why is it that people feel so strongly about the pairs coupling in this film? In real life the couple’s age gap was actually around 10 years so it’s understandable why critics are calling it a ‘miscast’.

However, fans have come out to defend Florence playing the role, as one person wrote on social media “[Jean] Tatlock was 22 years old when she started dating Oppenheimer and 29 when she died”. The movie follows Oppenheimer’s life over decades and Jean is only in the film for part of his life so it makes sense Florence who is 27 years old would play Jean throughout her 20s.

It’s not the first time Florence has been embroiled in an age gap debate. The British actress was in a relationship with 'Scrubs' actor Zach Braff who is 21 years her senior. The couple dated for three years and would often have to defend their age-gap relationship. Speaking to Harper's Bazaar Florence said "We've been trying to do this separation without the world knowing because it's been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on."

There have also been many films that have seen enormous age gaps on screen but no one really batted an eyelid.

In the film ‘As Good As It Gets’ Jack Nicholson was 60 when co-star Helen Hunt was 34.

Scarlett Johansson was 18 when she played opposite Bill Murray, 52, in ‘Lost in Translation’ and Elizabeth Olsen was just 31 when she starred in ‘Wandavison’ alongside Paul Bettany, 49.'

Bing! Bang! Chugga! Beep! by Bill Martin Jr. and Michael Sampson

Bing, Bang, Chugga, Beep! Prepare for this delightful chant to get stuck in your head as you join a beloved old car on a typical journey that turns into a delightful adventure!  

Readers will be exposed to colorful word repetition and onomatopoeia-style sounds which promote print motivation and print awareness. 

Kids will improve their phonological awareness as they hear the rhyming descriptive words. You can also practice narrative skills as you discuss what exactly the old car is doing.

This book helps build:

Print awareness: Point out the chant “Bing, Bang, Chugga, Beep” that is repeated in different text on each spread.

Phonological Awareness: Hearing the onomatopoeia-style words

Print Motivation: Help the child point to each of the words in the chant as you say them together.

This book helps kids practice:

Reading the rhyming words

Singing the rhyming repetitive text

Talking about what the car is doing

Extend the book by playing with cars!

You can extend these practices and the story by playing with cars. Here are some ideas:

Drive toy cars over different terrain to work on finger dexterity, which is needed to learn to write.

Use paint to “drive” the car into the shapes of their name, which promotes letter knowledge.

Check out Bing! Bang! Chugga! Beep!

Baby Bear, Baby Bear, What Do You See?

by Bill Martin Jr

Pictures by Eric Carle

"Rattlesnake, rattlesnake what do you see? I see a screech owl hooting at me."

T loves the all of the Brown Bear books. Like all the sequels to "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?", the animals are a bit more of a mouthful. This was a nap time favorite for awhile and he still requests it sometimes.
