Encourage all students to participate. Encourage collaborative and individual script writing activities. What Students Learn about Language and Literature Readers' theatre enriches oral and reading vocabularies. Play scripts are means of communicating stories. Characterization is revealed through dialogue, expressive voice and gestures.
Participation enhances personal interpretations of, and responses to, literature.

Adapt stories from various cultures to the readers' theatre format. The people who lived there couldn't support their children so they took them into the forest and left them there.
