Create an engaging learning space for genre exploration with these fiction and nonfiction genre posters for your ELA classroom!
By Clodagh
Some social and emotional skills needed to collaborate with each other on a readers theatre performance are:
To ensure the students are set up for success, before they are sent off into the wild for readers theatre there needs to be guidelines and clear expectations. An example of some Readers Theatre rules could be
Be Kind: Listen to each other and treat everyone with respect.
Join In: Everyone gets a chance to be part of the fun!
Teamwork Rocks: Work together to make our performance shine.
Get Ready: Practice your lines and cues before rehearsals.
Talk It Out: Share ideas and listen to each other's suggestions.
Try New Things: Be open to trying different ways of doing things.
Solve Problems Together: Work as a team to overcome any challenges.
Say Thanks: Celebrate each other's hard work and talent.
Look Back and Learn: Reflect on what we did well and how we can improve.
Have Fun!: Let's make reader's theatre a blast for everyone!
Readers Theatre Scripts
There are many out there to suit a whole range of different year levels and themes!
I’ve created these social and emotional learning readers theatre scripts for years 3-6, with each focusing on a different area.
The Kindness Crew
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet the unique characters of the Kindness Crew: Charlie, Grace and Emma, as they embark on a mission to teach Zog, an alien from Planet Meany, about the importance of kindness.
The Inner Voices
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet Emma and Liam, whose ‘inner champion’ and ‘inner critic’ accompany them for a day at school. Inner Champion offers positivity, encouragement and kindness… Whilst Inner Critic is negative, unhelpful and unkind.
The Emotion Busters
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet the unique characters of “The Emotion Busters”: Happy Harry, Sad Sally, Fearful Fred, Frustrated Fran and Angry Alex, as they drink a potion to suppress emotions they don’t like.
Resilient Riley
In this Readers Theatre script, your students will meet the unique characters of Resilient Riley and Non Resilient Riley. Resilient Riley steps up to date to day challenges, however Non Resilient Riley runs away and ends up feeling even worse.

FLUENCY + PHRASING MINI LESSONS | ANCHOR CHARTS, MENTOR TEXTS, PROMPTS
By French Made Fun!
Have your middle schoolers regressed in their reading strategies, or do you have students that require explicit strategies relating to their fluency and phrasing? This collection of slides is intended for big kids who need extra support. The language is intended for grades 5 through 8. They're not babyish, and the texts used are at the level of your pre-teen and teen crowds!
This 35-page document provides you with posters (which you can display digitally as anchor charts, or have them printed), mentor texts to model the strategy or do a shared reading with your students, and independent task prompts.
In this document, you'll find:
9 Anchor Charts reflecting 9 different strategies.
"I can read less common words with fluency."
"I can make sense of my reading."
"I can read with intonation and expression."
"I can read with phrasing."
"I can make my voice match the punctuation."
"I can warm up my fluency by reading an easy book."
"I can pay attention to punctuation."
"Hear me out!"
"I can be a helpful reading partner."
10 mentor texts.
8 independent tasks (often using writer's notebooks or post-its.)
I translate the majority of my documents to have both English and French versions; however, this is an English-only document.
