Halloween Reader’s Theater Scripts

Created by

Teaching With a Mountain View

Fluency and comprehension are at the heart of upper grades reading instruction, and these Halloween reader’s theater plays have been carefully designed to review both! My students absolutely LOVE reader’s theater, and I love all the benefits they provide. I set out to create a set of Reader’s Theater that helps students practice their reading comprehension skills, gives them plenty of opportunity for oral reading fluency practice, and provides accountability to both the readers and the audience.
