On Thursday, September 25th, students in the St. Therese Reader's Theater Club gathered in the library for their first meeting of the year. We warmed up our brains by playing a game of "Zip" in which students pass a clap around a circle and practice teamwork and communication. Then, we warmed up our tongues with a few tongue twisters to help us practice enunciation. Not one person escaped without laughing!

The main attraction of the meeting, however, was to dive into a reader's theater script. We read a script by Judy Freeman based upon Lane Smith's John, Paul, George, and Ben. In the photo above, Brevin L. plays a young Thomas Jefferson who was known for his independence. All in attendance did an awesome job at our first attempt, and the group intends to read this script again at our next meeting and switch up parts.
