In our most recent Learning Launch rotation, each of the classes has been focusing on reading fluency. What better way to enhance fluency that Reader's Theater?! I was so excited to get started on Reader's Theater with my group which was full of already great readers when they came to me. I split them into groups, assigned them scripts and parts, and let them get to practicing. I let them practice their scripts for about 3 days in Learning Launch before we began presenting them to the class. The groups did a wonderful job and really learned the importance of all aspects of fluency...not just reading quickly but with expression and intonation as well. This was my first experience using Reader's Theater in my own classroom, but I absolutely loved it and will certainly be using it again!
