Research has shown that when making connections across disciplines, teachers and students alike draw heavily on popular culture (specifically, movies, fictional texts, and novels) researchers therefore suggest that educators look to the area of popular culture as a means by which to engage students in science and literacy practices ( Moje, 2008). 2) describe the ways in which literature can provide a launching pad into inquiry: The use of literature in the science classroom can strengthen students’ scientific inquiry skills by presenting a context for exploration and providing a springboard into interdisciplinary, real-world problem solving ( Bush et al., 2015 Cook & Dinkins, 2015a, 2015b Grysko & Zygouris-Coe, 2020). ![]() This tendency to embed literature into the science classroom indicates that many teachers use literacy as an access point to spread disciplinary instruction across content areas ( Cook & Dinkins, 2015b Yager, 2004). ![]() Teachers often use literature both as a hook into and throughout inquiry-based instruction ( Cervetti et al., 2006 Pearson, 2010). ![]() ![]() He dreamed of more than plowing the fields and milking the cow, much more than the pennies gathered at the little pub in Glendree.

He’d known from an early age the backbreaking work of plowing a field behind a horse named Moon. He’d lost an uncle and his oldest brother in the first Great War, had grieved for a sister who’d died before her eighteenth birthday delivering her second child. He’d known hunger in the lean times, had never forgotten the taste of his mother’s bread and butter pudding-or the whip-swat of her hand when he’d earned it. ![]() When Liam Sullivan died, at the age of ninety-two, in his sleep, in his own bed with his wife of sixty-five years beside him, the world mourned.īorn in a little cottage tucked in the green hills and fields near the village of Glendree in County Clare, he’d been the seventh and last child of Seamus and Ailish Sullivan. ![]() And its nature is sweetness-until something happens. ![]() ![]() Lindsay Boxer, a homicide detective for the San Francisco Police Department, had a health scare that seemed to only be included to give the character a personal crisis to handle while trying to track down a possible serial killer.
