Reader's Theatre: Tacky the Penguin
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
I'm a huge fan of Reader's Theatre as a collaborative and fun disguised way to practice fluency, oral language, speaking skills and working together in a group. Perfect for a literacy center group activity.
I wrote this script as a paired text with Tacky the Penguin. There are 4-7 roles and the script is 5 pages in length. The variation in roles can be determined whether you want one child to be the "Hunters" or you want three children to be Hunter 1, Hunter 2, and Hunter 3. The font is large enough for students to read. There are two versions of the same script included. A printer-friendly version that you can copy in black, on white or colored card stock. OR a color coded version with each role a different color as shown in thumbnails above. OR use it with your digital device and then there's no need to print it at all.
These Reader's Theatre scripts are intended to increase reading fluency and reading confidence. While performing the Reader's Theatre after much practice with the group is a desired outcome, these scripts do not include stage directions as these scripts are more about fluency and less about acting.
Ⓠ Is a growing bundle available?
Ⓐ I will not be posting a growing bundle. I will be posting the scripts as they are created. All scripts will be posted at 50% off when released for the first 48 hours.
