Description
The Happy Halloween That Almost Wasn't... is a Halloween reader's theater script your middle school students will love! Practice fluency and speaking while incorporating Halloween themes into your language arts instruction. This 11 character PDF script includes comprehension questions and word work activities, making this unit a flexible teaching resource you can use in multiple ways!
Your students will love reading about the characters of Parkersburg Elementary School and how their Halloween traditions and celebrations were cancelled, then reconsidered due to some thoughtful 6th grade brain power.
This fun pack includes:
• 5 1/2-page, 11-character script
• reader response questions
• context clue word work for vocabulary
• a summary strategy organizer
• 3-post-reading journal prompts to enhance writing
Estimated Lexile Measure: 770
I've also added a BONUS informational text pack with reader response questions and word work. Finally, the pack is complete with a Halloween-Themed Shirt Making How-To Craftivity and a recipe for a "Spooky Snack Sack."
Reader's theater scripts are an essential tool for middle school language arts. I use them regularly to enhance fluency, increase student engagement, and sharpen our reading comprehension skills.
Your Halloween week of instruction will be planned with this one reader's theater fun pack! Enjoy! This is also a great lesson plan idea to utilize with a substitute teacher to keep your students engaged while you are out of the classroom!
