STUDENTS OF THE MONTH
Between the Lions continues to thrill not only kids, but critics
as well! The show that helps teach kids to read has won
a second
Television Critics Association "Outstanding
Achievement in Children's Programming" Award. Winner of
last year's award in the same category, Between the Lions
has once again been chosen for this television honor gven
annually by the 22-year-old Television Critics Association.
"We are deeply honored to win the top children's award two years in a row," says Between the Lions executive producer Judy Stoia.
"It's a validation of what we're all about: to use the powerful force of television to help young children learn to read."
The Between the Lions program and web site have just been
endorsed by the National Education Association (NEA), the
largest teachers organization in the U.S. This is the first
time in over ten
years that they have endorsed an ongoing television program.
NEA
president Bob Chase said, "This extraordinary program is a bonus for children and teachers. Not only will the series help beginning readers learn key skills that are essential to learning to read, the Between the Lions series and web site provide teachers, parents, and caregivers top-notch lessons that support learning. "It's rare that the NEA recommends TV, and even rarer for us to wholeheartedly promote a program. But Between the Lions breaks
the mold. It's quality television that supports quality teaching."
