Spooky Theater

Grade level: 3rd Grade

Essential Question: Why is it important to read with emotion and

feeling?

Standard: CC.1.1.3.E.RF.3.4 :Read on level with prose and poetry

orally with accuracy, appropriate rate, and

expression on successive readings.

Objectives: Students will be able to comprehend a passage after

participating in a readers theater.

Materials:

-“Who-Who is afraid of the dark” readers theater script.

- Ipads

- Flip Grid video response app

- Halloween word search

Procedure: I will begin the lesson by talking to the students about

what scares them and other various halloween type questions. Then I

will introduce the script and pass it out. After passing it out the

students will separate into two groups. After separating I will work

with the one group and assign parts. We will begin the readers theater

at this point while the other group of students is working on the

halloween word search. After the first group finishes we will rotate

and I will repeat the process of assigning roles. After both groups are

finished they will all get on the flip grid app and complete the video

response question I have posed.

Assessment: Students will be assessed in their flip grid video response

on the question: Summarize the readers theater you have just

completed, be sure to show emotion during your response.

Special Considerations

Early Finishers: Students who finish their flip grid response early

will be able to get a book out of our spooky class library and silent

read.

Remediation: students who are struggling to grasp the concept

can have their theater script with them when completing flip grid.

Enrichment: Students who are excelling are expected to add

sound words and pictures to their flip grid response.
