A full range of reading levels is included, with scripts aimed mostly at ages 8–15. The scripts may be freely copied, shared, and performed for any noncommercial purpose, except they may not be posted online without permission.

Renovo Elementary Reader's Theater Scripts and Tips
Readers' Theater serves many useful functions:
It provides repeated reading practice--an important factor in building fluency. Repeated reading practice also improves students' confidence in, and enthusiasm for reading.
It's an enjoyable change of pace from everyday practice sessions. My students love it! And so do I. Students are so thrilled at their newfound skill that they ask to perform for younger classes.
It's a wonderful opportunity for children who are used to feelings of failure to provide expertise and entertainment for others.

Practice Quiz on Phonics
Phonics is a word-attack skill in which you "sound-out" difficult words by using the common sounds of letters in the word. It is often the first reading skill taught to people and is considered one of the "basic skills". Knowledge of phonics is most helpful in linking the words one knows through simply hearing them with the actual written word. You may wish to review and print this list of phonics rules before you start this quiz.
