What educators are saying

My students found this play so intriguing because it was like nothing they had read before and they like the activities that Laura planned out in the lesson. I made it group work and it kept them engaged the entire time.
This was a great starting point for a short story unit focused on feminist lit! We read this, Sweat, The Yellow Wallpaper, A Lamb to the Slaughter, and The Story of an Hour.
