Fiction as Context
We had the great pleasure to pull together a set of books for Mr. Imes' class as they researched topics in biotechnology. Their assignment was to choose a book or movie that deals with biotechnology in some way, assess the science used in the book or movie, and write an essay that compares the fictional technology with their class learning. What a great way to get excited about a topic and gain a real-world context. |

The One and Only Ivan
The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate
Ivan
is an easygoing gorilla. Living at the Exit 8 Big Top Mall and Video
Arcade, he has grown accustomed to humans watching him through the glass
walls of his domain. He rarely misses his life in the jungle. In fact,
he hardly ever thinks about it at all. Instead, Ivan thinks about TV
shows he's seen and about his friends Stella, an elderly elephant, and
Bob, a stray dog. But mostly Ivan thinks about art and how to capture
the taste of a mango or the sound of leaves with color and a well-placed
line. Then he meets Ruby, a baby elephant taken from her family, and
she makes Ivan see their home--and his own art--through new eyes. When
Ruby arrives, change comes with her, and it's up to Ivan to make it a
change for the better.
