    My students love any kind of reader’s theater, and this was another hit! I already have the one about fish, so I was familiar with the process used. My students did this over the course of 3 days and had lots of fun!

    My 6th grade AIS students LOVED this reading. They really got into it with different voices and acting it out. It took 1.5 class periods but was worth it to work on decoding and fluency.
