I have been a quiet participant on the list serve--my book arrived late--and am
enjoying it immensely. So many like-minded people together is pretty exciting.
I noticed Bill mentioned using Twilight Zone episodes which is something I
have been wanting to do myself. My question is which episodes have short story
companion pieces? I think this is a great way to get young readers hooked into
thinking more deeply but have only found one episode for which there is an
accompanying textual component--"The Most Dangerous Game." Would love to know
what you have in your treasure chest. And to answer your question, my hope for
them to take from the text is that we explored it so completely that it leaves
them still thinking after putting it away because they are applying it to
themselves and the world around them. Thanks, Jean
