Where can I find Reader's Theater Scripts?

Ms. Dorothy,
I would like to do some Reader's Theater with my class.  They are a pretty dramatic bunch, but are struggling with reading fluency.  Where can I find some good scripts?

The IRA (International Reading Association) & National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE)'s  site Read, Write, Think is a great resource for information about Reader's Theater. They have a link for a website with free printable scripts as well.


Literacy Connections
has more resources on the subject, and links to a lot of script sites.


You can also write your own scripts from familiar folk tales and stories, or make it a project for the students to write their own. Have Fun with it!

  1. Music and lighting are an integral part of a production. They enhance moods and situations, highlight characters and places, and add to the success of a production.
