Using "Between the Lions" in a Kindergarten Classroom.
St. Clair, James P.
Young Children, v57 n2 p87-88 Mar 2002
Describes use of the public television program "Between the Lions" in one kindergarten classroom to help develop literacy skills. Reports that 75 to 85 percent of children were engaged by the program, with the most attentive children being those who understood some letter-sound connections and enjoyed trying to read along. Most of the children who lost interest quickly spoke English as a second language. (KB)
