NIGHT

9 minutes/Grades P-6

What is it about the night that stirs the imagination toward
enchantment and mystery? A girl views the city at night from her
balcony, wondering about the sights and sounds of her familiar
world after dark. Several viewings will allow students to look
again and experience the magic of night from different
perspectives.

• "The more abstract and subjective NIGHT and TOPSY-TURVY appeal
  to the feelings and imagination that are so important to
  creativity. ... How the filmmaker goes about conveying the
  message... is also a valuable skill to learn. At the conclusion of
  the guide, the filming of special effects ... is thoroughly
  covered." Booklist

• "During a time when libraries and schools are rethinking ways
  to achieve excellence, the development of children's reasoning
  skills should not be overlooked... . Complete with authentic sound
  effects, evocative instrumental music, and two talented
  performers, these shorts sharpen visual literacy as they provide
  an entertainingly instructive method to make children, stop, look,
  and listen... In a variety of ways these creative "core" videos
  also speak clearly to such diverse populations as immigrant,
  language-disabled, inner city, and rural children." Booklist
