Students will act out the story of Ben and Melissa, two siblings who begin to help their new neighbors with chores to earn money. Their helpful neighbors teach them all the basics of earning, spending, and saving money. Readers will learn about the many choices there are to make when they have money. This Reader's Theater script features roles written to match multiple reading levels. Teachers can assign specific roles to their readers based on each student's current reading level, allowing all students to get involved in the same activity and feel successful! Students will gain confidence in their reading fluency through performance, regardless of their current reading ability. While performing with others, students will practice performance, interacting cooperatively, reading aloud, and using expressive voices and gestures to better tell the story. These drama scripts for students are a great way to teach literacy and engage all learners!
