Students will act out the story of a blind boy who listens as his grandfather retells the stories of the boy's life of overcoming struggles. Through his grandfather's storytelling, the boy learns about the night he was born, how he got his name, how he learned to walk and run, and more. This Reader's Theater script features roles written at varying 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!
