    This helped my ESL’s and gave a good challenge as well to my Native speakers!

  2. The Elementary Atelier

    I bought this right before I got sick, so it was a great thing to have my sub do. The kids loved it and the sub loved not having to do a lot of prep.

    I just did one of these with my class and they loved it! They want to know if they can do another readers’ theater for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Will you be coming out with those? I hope so, because my special ed kids rarely get this excited about reading! Thank you for a wonderful resource.

  8. EMILIE L.

    I used this with 3rd/4th graders during my one week intersession. They loved the stories and begged to do more.
