Many Helping Hands 

Students will act out a story of many helpful family, friends, and neighbors. After Mario’s mom breaks her leg, the family needs a lot of extra help during her time of need. With many helpful characters, this script teaches readers the importance of doing good deeds! This Reader’s Theater script features roles written to match multiple reading levels. Teachers can assign specific roles to their readers based on each student’s current reading level, allowing all students to get involved in the same activity and feel successful! Students will gain confidence in their reading fluency through performance, regardless of their current reading ability. While performing with others, students will practice performance, interacting cooperatively, reading aloud, and using expressive voices and gestures to better tell the story. These drama scripts for students are a great way to teach literacy and engage all learners!
