What educators are saying

This was perfect to enhance my unit on the Nutcracker. Most of my students have studied the Nutcracker in music previous years, and in 4th grade they can take ownership of the story through this reader's theater.
This reader's theater was so fun to use prior to watching The Nutcracker performance. Students loved seeing their character "live." The leveling information is helpful in assigning roles.
