Learning Objective

The student will improve their reading fluency. The student will identify the historical setting and answer multiple questions about each script.

Description

These five partner plays are intended to be used as fluency-building activities that 4th-5th students can do with a partner. This set of scripts focus on the historical fiction genre. These scripts require minimal teacher support, thereby allowing teachers to work with other small groups. For teachers who implement reading centers, these plays are perfect. These scripts are also ideal for parents who are looking for fun at-home reading activities that parents and children can read together. If you have a child who is reluctant to read at home, I encourage you to give these scripts a try!

It comes with a BONUS worksheet. After reading the scripts, students answer the comprehension questions that accompany each script.

When you purchase this resource, you will get to choose the format that best meets your needs and your students' needs. You will choose between the printable partner plays and the paperless version that uses Google Slides.

This set includes five independent scripts, all set in the past:

  • Drummer Boy Dreams (set during Revolutionary War)
  • A Fight For Equal Rights (set during the Civil Rights Movement)
  • Teacher Troubles (pioneer children)
  • A Not-so-Groovy Night (set during the Vietnam War)
  • A New Automobile (early 1900s)

These scripts require minimal teacher support, thereby allowing teachers to work with other small groups. For teachers who implement reading centers, these plays are perfect.
