Build Spanish fluency through performance reading with this script about the harsh experiences and struggles that families faced during the Great Depression. With this script, Spanish-speaking students will act out the story of a girl named Lillian whose father loses his job, causing the family to move from New York to Oklahoma. Readers will learn the importance of hard work, sacrifice, and a hopeful attitude. This Reader’s Theater script features roles written to match multiple reading levels. Teachers can assign specific roles to their readers based on each student’s current reading level, allowing all Spanish readers to get involved in the same activity and feel successful! Students will gain confidence with performing, interacting cooperatively, reading aloud, and using expressive voices and gestures to better tell the story. These drama scripts are a great way to teach Spanish literacy and engage all English learners!
