Senisse ; music by Boaz Dvir, Blake Blanchard, Matthew Tiramani.Narrated by Tamara Tunie.Gloria Jean Merriex.During her first 25 years at Duval Elementary (East Gainesville, Fla.), Gloria Merriex adhered to her district's rigid pacing guides. But after her school flunked its high-stakes state standardized exam, she changed. Completely. Duval faced major consequences. They included a budget freeze and the threat of a shutdown. The state and district pressured Gloria and her colleagues to strictly follow the curriculum. Gloria fought back. She created a curriculum from scratch to make her lessons relevant to her students. Recognizing rhythm and repetition help children grasp complex concepts, she experimented with music and movement. She wrote original songs and choreographed geometrical motions. She flipped the playbook, starting the school year with the hardest concepts. She practiced tough love. And she substantially raised her expectations of her students and herself.Rating: Not rated.DVD, region 1; wide screen (16x9, 1.78:1); Dolby 2.0 stereo.
