What’s the Matter with Mr. Fuego? 

What’s the Matter with Mr. Fuego? is an engaging story about a science teacher who is struggling with failed science demonstrations. This interactive eight-act script teaches physical science concepts while increasing students’ literacy skills. The differentiated roles provide every student with the opportunity to succeed, and accommodate multiple reading levels. This classroom resource includes a script, poem, and song to help students develop good stage presence and vocabulary, and interact cooperatively with peers. Students will enjoy acting out the story while learning about chemical reactions and states of matter.
