New on my RT Page is a collection of testimonials to the power of
reader's theater, gathered from many years of messages from teachers,
librarians, and other educators.
If you've been thinking of using reader's theater, read these to
learn why you should wait no longer. If you'd like to use it but must
first convince your administrators, here's your ammunition. If you're
already using reader's theater, take these as encouragement from the
community of believers.
