By the Rubric of Rhythm, They'll Readoffers alternative keys for children
reading below basic to succeed.
Opening doors and new horizons
for students placed at risk,
tapping into their multiple intelligences
that systemic approaches and standardized tests have missed.
It discusses the history of public schooling
and the reading literacy paradigm,
stating the problem while presenting solutions
that stimulate and liberate students' minds—
Into real-world social
and interactional contexts,
using poetry to renegotiate narrative texts
to promote individual agency through
oral, audio, visual, written language,
fusing technology and arts at its best!
The book is for parents, teachers,
educational stakeholders and laypeople alike.
It's for anyone who wants to step outside of the box
and in our children ignite—
The spark that will make students
want to learn as they dance and sing,
taking into account their prior knowledge
and the cultural capital they bring.
An educator's creation through imagination
and willingness to take the lead,
creating multimodal communicative texts using poetry
so that by the rubric of rhythm, they'll read!
