[Xmca-l] Re: Fwd: Sad news about Vivian

[Ageliki Nicolopoulou]

These are very sad news, as Vivian Paley was someone who was very important
in my work--and whom I have met personally on a few occasions. For years, I
have studied her storyteling/story-acting activity in classrooms that were
already using it and I also helped many teachers to adopt it; at the same
time, I have also analyzed (and continue to analyze) the many many
children's stories collected through this activity. And her books still
remain a great inspiration for me. She was able to make the children be so
articulate (sing as Feldman once said) and we can still learn from them,
while it takes many many studies to gain the insights she was able to give
us in a few pages.

Vivian was an exceptional teacher and an exceptional and gifted person who
would be sorely missed!
