这个学期，组织了2024年桐乡市小学英语教师教学能力大比武暨守望杯选拔赛。凌哥想往一个比较新的教学方向探索——英语文学教学。文学既是一种直接以语言为载体的文化，也是以语言为表现方式的艺术。但是我们小学阶段的英语，与语文课相比，文学性语篇实在是太少了。如果说教材中的故事尚可算文学的话，它们的艺术性也比较低。当我们在阐述、追求语言的人文性的时候，似乎更加关注的还是其工具性，即借助语言文字来阐述主题意义（通常是德育意义和非语言的文化，如饮食）。不同于经典歌曲和童谣，教材中的一些歌曲、童谣等，也更多是为语言知识服务的，比如“Brown, Brown, Touch the ground. / Open your eyes. Touch your mouth. / Go to the living room.

We consulted our friends, our colleagues, strangers on the street and actual experts to cull this list.

When I was in high school, I loved to orchestrate wacky surprises. Like climbing on the roof of our family suburban home to tack up “Happy Birthday Sh***y Soph” in giant 4’ newspaper letters for my sister. Contact papering the family ‘67 Volkswagen van in bright orange with giant black polka dots and eye lashes over the headlights, naming her the Lady Bug for all us Bonness girls. For me doing something surprising for someone was and is a delight.
