RIBBIT, RIBBIT! Calling all frog lovers! FrogWatch USA is a citizen science program set up through AZA to help scientists collect data and vital information on frogs and toads. Join us for an hour-long classroom training where you will listen to the chorus of croaks, ribbits, and ‘jug-a-rums’, learn about all the native frogs and toads that live right here in western North Carolina, and identify the type of frog or toad by their call. Then we’ll head out to a couple of hoppin’ frog spots around the Asheville area to see what species we can observe. Program is geared to those ages 10 and up.
For more information, please contact Lauren Pyle at lpyle@ashevillenc.gov or call 828-259-8085.
This biopic of Ugandan chess prodigy Phiona Mutesi (Madina Nalwanga) traces her journey from the Kampala slum of Katwe, where she is forced to abandon her formal schooling at the age of nine, to the upper echelons of the chess world after she develops an interest in the game at a youth-outreach program run by Robert Katende (David Oyelowo). Lupita Nyong’o co-stars as Mutesi’s mother, who worries that her daughter’s dreams of becoming a chess champion are a frivolous distraction from real life. Produced as a joint venture between Disney and ESPN Films, Queen of Katwe was directed by Mira Nair (Monsoon Wedding), and was adapted from a nonfiction book by sportswriter Tim Crothers, who became acquainted with Mutesi’s story while on assignment for ESPN. Rated PG, 124 minutes.
The annual local Battle of the Books competition will involve all four Henderson County middle school teams. The battles alternate between schools, with teams answering questions based upon a list of 27 books chosen by the North Carolina School Library Media Association’s committee. Anyone can attend the competition, but only team members can compete. All four schools will be accompanied by the school media specialist and coaches. The competition will begin with a reading of the rules and procedures and then the teams will begin competing, two teams at a time.
