The Principal's New Clothes - Reader's Theater for the Entire Class!
This reader's theater is for the entire class! You will need at least 11 students but more is always better. This ties into my other twisted fairy tales except that it was written to do as a class. I split my class into two groups and both groups practice. When we perform we discuss what things we liked about each group. I use this to introduce the small group reader's theaters I have them do the rest of the year. I have also come back to the script at the end of the year to perform in front of

Spanish Reader's Theater--La Gallinita Roja (The Little Red Hen)
Reader's Theater is a great tool for building fluency in reading. As a bilingual educator I have found that Spanish reader's theater is a valuable tool to get Spanish language learners to practice their oral development. Although I have used these scripts in my First grade classroom, they would also work well for secondary Spanish classes.
The Little Red Hen is easy to follow with its repetitive phrases and familiar storyline. This reader's theater is an excellent way for students who are lear

Theatre/Drama Tongue Twisters
These are some of my favorite tongue twisters that I do with my kids. I do not claim that I created any of these, but they are very easy to find on the internet. I print out a classroom set and then I get them laminated by my school so they last forever. You can even test the kids on them. I select a different student leader every week to lead the class in warm ups.
