Egbert and the Princess - School Journal Level 3 August 2013 (TKI82081)

Description
Teacher support material for a L3, year 6, 2013 School Journal story that takes standard fairy tale characters and turns them on their heads. The author uses the readers’ prior knowledge of Western dragon–princess stories to create humour by changing the stereotypes, which in turn upsets the readers’ expectations of events and reactions. A useful text for helping students to understand how authors use knowledge of their audience to achieve their purpose.

Nasty Nits - School Journal Level 2, October 2013 (TKI82073)

Description
Level 2 year 4 teacher support material for a School Journal article that provides scientific information in an informal way and is well supported with headings, photographs, labelled diagrams, and fact boxes. The headings and style of writing are humorous and informal, engaging students’ interest and showing that science can be fun. The detailed information will have a “yuck” appeal to children, but the text doesn’t make judgments about students who might be suffering from head lice.

Home: Stories from New New Zealanders – School Journal Story Library Level 3 2018 (TKI85506)

Description
Online version of School Journal Story Library Level 3 2018. Readability level: year 4. Teacher support material and audio available at instructionalseries.tki.org.nz/Instructional-Series/School-Journal-Story-Library – this book tells the stories of four Avondale Intermediate students who moved to New Zealand from overseas. Interviewed by their teacher, Kate Paris, the students share memories of what life was like in the countries where they were born (South Africa, Sāmoa, Pakistan, and Kenya), and they discuss what it’s been like adjusting to life in New Zealand. The article explores the issues in a simple and accessible way, incorporating clear narration with students’ quotes and striking photography.

Max and Alice – School Journal Level 2 August 2019 (TKI85941)

Description
Online version of a story from School Journal L2 August 2019. Includes teacher support material. Max is a little different from his classmates. Tasks and events that are routine for them are hard for him. Some of his classmates find this difficult to accept, but Alice and her friends know that it is important to be kind. This story gently reminds us that kindness can take persistence but is worth it. There are sensitivities in the content and themes of this story. While it is not stated directly, the author implies that Max is on the autism spectrum. There may be students in your class who are also on the spectrum or who have friends or family members with ASD. Others will have had experience of bullying or of being bullied.
