Spanish Reader's Theater-Ricitos de Oro y los Tres Osos (The Three Bears)
Reader's Theater is a great tool for building fluency in reading. As a bilingual educator I have found that Spanish reader's theater is a valuable tool to get Spanish language learners to practice their oral development. Although I have used these scripts in my First grade classroom, they would also work well for secondary Spanish classes.
Goldilocks and the Three Bears is easy to follow with its repetitive phrases and familiar storyline. This reader's theater is an excellent way for students

The Princess & the Pizza - Small Group Reader's Theater
I have combined 2 Small Group Reader's Theaters into this package. They are the same title, The Princess and the Pizza but one is written for 3 characters and one is written for 4. It is a twist on the Princess and the Pea. When performing these, my students compare and contrast the original story and then these two using a Venn Diagram. The moral in these stories deals with when a person should get married and why but it is also meant to be funny. The reason I rewrote the story twice is that I

Fun Activity for Shakespeare: Shakespearean Insults
This is a handout for a fun activity involving using insults of William Shakespeare.
