This small group reader's theater is for 3 students. In the script Goldilocks is a delinquent who broke into the three bears home. The police have arrested her with mama bear's jewelry in her pocket and are trying to get her to confess. I use reader's theaters to encourage my students to practice fluency.

Reader's Theatre Holidays Around the World Script

Created by

Quality Counts

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.

French - Ordering Food at a Restaurant

Created by

French and English Resources

This is a great little template for students to learn how to order a meal at a restaurant. Also included is how to ask for the bill (l'addition). Students can fill in the blanks with the things they are ordering. I had my own students prepare this a little and present it in front of the class. The students had a blast, totally getting into character and trying very hard to memorize their own lines. Working on practical skills like ordering food is a must in my French classroom!

An Interview with the Easter Bunny - Small Group Reader's Theater

Created by

Drama, Easter, EFL - ESL - ELD

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

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

There are 8 accident scenario cards to choose from, and each student will need a partner. Each student receives a scenario (which they should not share with their partner - yet). They have a little picture and a name, an English description of what the person was doing when they got hurt, the type of injury that was sustained, and the treatment that was received. (So they are using the imperfect progressive and preterite all at once!) They have five minutes to convert this information into a
