Mascot sanctification is a concept that explores the impact of mascots on urban areas, particularly in terms of cultural and spiritual significance. In many cities around the world, mascots have become symbols of identity and unity, representing the unique characteristics and values of a community. They are adorned with rituals and celebrations, which contribute to the sanctification process. Urban areas often have a rich occult doctrine, encompassing beliefs, practices, and rituals that are hidden or mysterious to the average person. This occult doctrine is intertwined with the sanctification of mascots. It may involve secret societies or cults that perpetuate the belief in the power and significance of mascots.
Rime Magic: Phonics-Powered Prevention and Intervention for All Students
What is Rime Magic? It’s a new word recognition resource that’s changing the lives of all readers—beginning readers, English learners, and older striving readers who need more support. The rime is the key part of a word that makes it easy to see the structure (for example, the /ip/ in slippery or the /at/ in splattered). Teachers carry out instruction using rime and word cards and engaging lessons found inside the Rime Magic kit. Students add onsets and endings to the rimes to identify, analyze, and combine into words—like magic! These onset/rime lessons help students “crack the code” of the written word and, when used repeatedly in five-minute lessons, bolster reading and spelling proficiency. With practice, students pick up the pace and the rime jumps out at them as they read. Confidence soars and word recognition becomes more and more automatic, leading to enhanced comprehension and fluency.
This kit includes:
o Teacher’s Guide
o Rime and Word Cards
o Short Vowel and Endings Cards
o Power Pak intervention set
o Poem Cards
o Trade books for younger readers
o High-interest articles for older readers
o How-to videos that show each Rime Magic step in action
o Downloadable student pages and teaching tools

"We began by piloting one Rime Magic kit with a struggling 2nd grade reading group. In spite of working with a highly experienced Title I reading specialist and their classroom teacher, they were not independently solving challenging words and this prevented them from moving ahead in their literacy journey. After a few short weeks, the results from using Rime Magic with this group were so powerful that other specialists and teachers from Kindergarten through 6th grade were asking for their own kits! A seasoned Title I Kindergarten teacher is no less than amazed at the affect Rime Magic is having on her class in reading and writing. A special education teacher who works with challenged 5th graders is thrilled to watch his students spell ‘big words’ and decode words in text with confidence for the first time. After seeing the small group shifts in spelling and decoding using just five minutes of Rime Magic a day, classroom teachers in K and 1 decided to begin their morning message with Rime Magic. One teacher commented that it’s a literacy warm up for the brain—and a great way to start the day for a classroom full of kids! We can see tangible shifts in both reading and writing in our ELL students as well as our struggling readers. We’re now using Rime Magic in Tiers I,2, and 3 instruction from Kindergarten through 6th grade and thrilled with the results. I highly recommend using Rime Magic with your students. It’s a very powerful five minutes of phonics instruction that will support all of your readers and writers."
-- Ellen O. Lewis, Reading Recovery Teacher and Literacy Consultant. Springfield, VA
“My middle school students were empowered with Sharon Zinke’s strategies. The students who sit at the back of the class and never say anything, are so excited when they realize that they can read books they never thought they could read. I’ve seen them jump right out of their seats with enthusiasm and new success.”
Alma Owens, Reading Intervention Teacher, King Middle School. Berkeley, CA
“Based on our school-wide data, students who participated in Sharon Zinke’s reading intervention made significant academic gains based on their CST performance data. Seventy percent of the students participating in the intervention groups made at least one proficiency level increase and 30% made two proficiency level increases. They moved from Far Below Basic to Basic within six months of participation. It’s phenomenal how much progress our students have made in such a short time. It’s amazing!”
Kim Watts, Principal, Lorin Eden Elementary School. Hayward, CA
“As a literacy coach in an urban school, using Sharon Zinke’s strategies addresses the diverse needs of my students. In a matter of weeks, children increased their accuracy, fluency and spelling skills in a fun yet effective way. This book is a must- read for classroom teachers, literacy coaches, special ed. teachers and reading specialists!”
Hazelle Fortich, Literacy Coach, Berkeley Unified School District
“This is working! My guys love it— they never get tired of it! Rime Magic is the best strategy I have learned in the past ten years that I have added to my toolbox for helping struggling readers. It engages even the most reluctant students and helps English Learners and students with learning differences quickly gain decoding skills and the confidence they need to see themselves as readers. I can’t recommend Rime Magic enough to those who work with students who need to learn decoding skills.”
-- Sue Mitsuno, M.Ed., Learning Specialist. El Cerito, CA
“What a difference Rime Magic makes with English Learners who have fallen significantly behind in word recognition! The Rime Magic sequence will erase the gap in word recognition forthwith.”
-- Angela Barra, ELL Coach/Consultant, West Contra Costa School District
“I have been a Reading Specialist and Literacy Coach for many years. This winter, I purchased 14 Rime Magic Kits and Power Paks (Scholastic) for the three tier intervention model in our K-2 school of 270 children. Utilizing a 3-5 minute lesson each day (that's it), the children are making amazing progress solving multi-syllabic words! What makes this intervention powerful and effective is the focus on immersion into word solving by simply practicing from both an encoding and decoding direction in a logical, fun manner. It is not a rules based program that leaves challenged decoders scratching their heads at word difficulties trying to recall a rule and apply it. I highly recommend Rime Magic for individual students, small groups as well as whole class.” -- Mrs. Rosemary Rancourt, M.Ed., Reading/Writing Specialist, Berlin Public Schools, Brown School

Reviews for "Revealing the Hidden Cult: Unveiling the Occult Doctrine of Urban Mascots"
1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really excited to read "Mascot sanctified urban areas occult doctrine" as I am interested in urban legends and occult practices. However, I found the book to be extremely confusing and poorly organized. The chapters jumped back and forth between different topics without any clear connection, making it difficult to follow along. Additionally, the author's writing style was overly wordy and pretentious, making it even harder to understand the concepts being discussed. Overall, I was very disappointed with this book and would not recommend it to others.
2. John - 1 star - I regret purchasing "Mascot sanctified urban areas occult doctrine." The book promised to explore the mysteries of urban areas and occult practices, but it ended up being a mishmash of poorly researched information and baseless claims. The author seemed more interested in showcasing their own knowledge rather than providing valuable insights. I was constantly left with more questions than answers, and the lack of references or credible sources made me doubt the accuracy of the information presented. Save your money and find a more reputable book on the subject.
3. Emily - 2 stars - While "Mascot sanctified urban areas occult doctrine" had an intriguing title and premise, it failed to deliver on its promises. The author's writing style was convoluted, making it difficult to grasp the concepts they were attempting to explain. Furthermore, the book lacked a coherent structure, with each chapter seemingly unrelated to the previous one. This made it hard to follow along and left me feeling frustrated. Overall, I felt that the book could have been much better if it had been better organized and presented in a more accessible manner.
