Reader's Theatre Holidays Around the World Script
This is a superb TOP SELLING script to be used with 1st-3rd grade students that teaches a little about the different end of year holiday celebrations around the world. It is designed to be used with a whole class. Two choral groups mean that almost any sized class is appropriate. It is excellent to build fluency for young readers due to the amount of repetition. This is a politically correct play giving equal attention to the different traditions celebrated around the holiday season.

An Interview with the Easter Bunny - Small Group Reader's Theater
This reader's theater is for a small group of three students. It was written for Easter. In the script, there are only a few days left until Easter but two reporters have been granted an interview. However, as they talk with the Easter Bunny, it becomes clear that all he thinks about is eggs and all he can say begins with EGGS. I write these scripts for small groups to help with fluency. When the group is small, they don't waste time sitting around waiting for their turn and get more time actua

The Princess & the Pizza - Small Group Reader's Theater
I have combined 2 Small Group Reader's Theaters into this package. They are the same title, The Princess and the Pizza but one is written for 3 characters and one is written for 4. It is a twist on the Princess and the Pea. When performing these, my students compare and contrast the original story and then these two using a Venn Diagram. The moral in these stories deals with when a person should get married and why but it is also meant to be funny. The reason I rewrote the story twice is that I
