Thanksgiving Reading Activity: Partner Play Scripts & Comprehension Worksheet

These five Thanksgiving partner plays are intended to be used as fluency-building activities that 2nd and 3rd grade students can complete with a partner. The scripts focus on fall and Thanksgiving themes. Kids love reading these fun seasonal scripts. These scripts require minimal teacher support, thereby allowing teachers to work with other small groups. For teachers who implement reading centers, these plays are perfect. These scripts are also ideal for parents who are looking for fun at-home reading activities that parents and children can read together. If you have a child who is reluctant to read at home, I encourage you to give these scripts a try!

It also includes a BONUS comprehension worksheet. After reading each script, students answer two or three comprehension questions that accompany that particular script.

This resource is available in multiple formats. Each teacher gets to choose the format that best meets his/her students' needs. You will choose between the printable partner plays and the paperless version that uses Google Slides. If you choose the printable option, you will have access to versions with color clip art and blackline clip art. Each script is exactly two pages, making it easy to print them back-to-back on a single page.

This set includes five independent scripts:

• The Thanksgiving Visitors
• Mason & Honey
• Pumpkin Pie Memories
• Football on Thanksgiving
• The After-Dinner Walk
