Description
Readers’ Theater productions offer teachers the flexibility of casting more than one reader for each role as a way to support emerging readers. The 15 Grade 1 Readers’ Theater scripts also include these features that provide additional support for emerging readers:
Simple rhyming text helps increase predictability of the text in the script for “Too Much Noise!”, a traditional Jewish folktale.
Scripts based on familiar folktales such as “The Three Billy Goats Gruff,” “The Little Red Hen,” and “The Three Little Pigs” increase students’ comfort with read-aloud material.
A patterned story structure and repeating choral refrain help support beginning readers in “Out in the Woods.”
Size 8.5″ X 11″ (144 Pages)
