Reader's Theater Editions These
scripts are GREAT! I have used them in elementary and
intermediate grades. They can easily be done in one class
period and when you don't have adequate lesson plans left
for you, this is one terrific activity.
Language Links on the Internet For
those of you who, like me, are heels over head in love
with the English language, there are many places on the
Net your love may be requited.
Word of the Day Each day we select an
interesting new word for you to consider. More than just
the definition: anecdotes, origins, quotes and current
events make the meaning of the Word-of-the-Day come to
life in an interesting and entertaining way.

of Random House, where he specializes in slang and new
words.
Reading
Journal Activities Most activities require no more
than the overhead, and those that do I mark when I skip
them to save for a day when we can use a little more
activity or fun time. The ones at the front are a good
way to begin using these; most can be done by the teacher
reading the selection out loud.--Barbara D. Martin
