Many elementary school teachers have asked for scripts that can be used with an entire class.

 

We have a number of these kinds of scripts, but have never grouped them together (in one place) until now. 

The following titles can be used with any size class and combine elements of Readers Theater and Choral Reading.  They all contain rhythm, rhyme, and repetition.

In most of these scripts there are parts for: Solo Readers, All Girl's Voices, All Boy's Voices, and an All Chorus of voices.  Check out the sample pages to see if the reading level and vocabulary are right for the age and interests of your particular students. 

Any of these scripts can be performed as a "Readers Performance" or memorized and performed without scripts in hand.
