SUMMARY/INDEX
Editor: Readers may question how sincere and intense and ART REVOLUTION is when each month we investigate an art form, offer up a plate of revolutionary ideas, the move on to the next like a flat rock skipping across the water. But I'm here to say that each of these stories is part of a bigger blueprint. And that blueprint is:
A COMPLETE AND TOTAL REVOLUTION IN THE ARTS This article shows you a summary/index of all the art fields/issues we've covered so far. I invite you to look up and read whatever interests you. Donna Turman ( Musea website) says the revolution hasn't reached 'critical mass' yet. Right she is. So until more people support the revolution and/or less people support corporate art we will continue paving the way with our zine. And thanks to all of you who have supported us all these years in our quest for an art revolution.

BCP DRAFT LIT 33
Baltimore Curriculum Project Draft Lessons Introductory Notes These lessons generally follow the grade-by-grade topics in the Core Knowledge Sequence, but they have been developed independent of the Core Knowledge Foundation. While the Core Knowledge Foundation encourages the development and sharing of lessons based on the Core Knowledge Sequence, it does not endorse any one set of lesson plans as the best or only way that the knowledge in the Sequence should be taught. You may feel free to download and distribute these lessons, but please note that they are currently in DRAFT form. At this time the draft lessons on this web site do NOT have accompanying graphics, such as maps or cut-out patterns. Graphics will be added to this site later. In participating BCP schools, these lessons are used in conjunction with the Direct Instruction skills programs in reading, language, and math. If you use or adapt these lessons, keep in mind that they are meant to address content and the application of skills. You will need to use other materials to ensure that children master skills in reading, language, and math. Kindergarten - Literature - November - Overview
The literature lessons for November will again contain two sayings and phrases. It is suggested that previous sayings and phrases be review and reexamined. The poetry section will continue to expose children to the nursery rhymes of Mother Goose. Please refer to page 23 October Literature Overview for suggested titles of Mother Goose Rhymes.

    I was from United States, and I lived from 1841-1920. Print or Buy my poetry? View comments Add to favorites? At the end of the nineteenth century, Charles Carryl was hailed as the American Lewis Carroll. Carryl's Davy and the Goblin expanded the realm of possibility in American fantasy for children when it first appeared in serial in 1884.
    Charles Edward Carryl wrote for his children and for himself; by trade he was a businessman and stockbroker who used his writing as a diversion. He was born in New York on December 30, 1841, the son of a prosperous businessman. By 1857 he had his rapid ascent up the business ladder, working as an officer and director of various railroad companies until 1872. In 1874 he landed a seat on the New York Stock Exchange, which he held for the next thirty-four years. From the 1850s through the 1870s the bulk of Carryl's writings were of the stock transfer-business memorandum variety.
    In 1869 Carryl married Mary Wetmore, and the first of their two children was born four years later. With the influence of his imaginative children, Carryl's storytelling soon began. Though the beginnings of Caryll's literary career were inauspicioushis first published work was the 1882 Stock Exchange Primerhe was soon thoroughly ensconced in a nonsense fantasy world that would, when it was introduced in St. Nicholas a children's periodical), elicit overwhelming approval from child readers.

    Sweet dreams form a shade,
    O'er my lovely infants head.
    Sweet dreams of pleasant streams,
    By happy silent moony beams
    Sweet sleep with soft down.
    Weave thy brows an infant crown.
    Sweet sleep Angel mild, Hover o'er my happy child. Sweet smiles in the night, Hover over my delight. Sweet smiles Mothers smiles, All the livelong night beguiles. Sweet moans, dovelike sighs, Chase not slumber from thy eyes, Sweet moans, sweeter smiles, All the dovelike moans beguiles.
