This #Halloween Reader's Theater is a companion activity to the book “The Night Before Halloween” by Natasha Wing. It will enable the children to enjoy the story even more as well as increase reading fluency and speaking skills.

About the Book

Little monsters and goofy goblins take center stage in this silly, spooky spin on Clement C. Moore's beloved poem. But what will happen on Halloween when the monsters come face to face with human trick-or-treaters in this fun-filled book by the author of The Night Before Easter?

There are two versions included. One version has roles for three students and the other version has roles for four students. Both versions are 4 pages.

I hope you enjoy using this reader’s theater with your students. #HappyHalloween
