Reader Response in Elementary Classrooms establishes and explores the essential features of reader response theory and its rendering of the reading process. The essays in this volume acknowledge a philosophy of teaching and illustrate a spectrum of teaching strategies to evoke and enhance readers' responses, including whole and small group discussion; story drama; readers' theatre; journal writing; scripts, letter, stories, and other writings; and "body punctuation." A case study format is used to illustrate these strategies in action in real classrooms.
