Teacher reads aloud. 2.Prepare a reader's theater script for a favorite scene. In reader's theater a story or a portion of a story is made into a script. One person narrates. The group practices its scene several times and finally presents it for others.
Learners use their books or rewritten scenes.
They do not need to memorize lines. Reader's theater involves no staging or props. We have recommended many more titles that are set in Appalachia. Such a text set could be used to help students begin to draw conclusions about the nature of life in Appalachia, important cultural issues and aspects, etc. All members of the group were advanced readers with one exception.
