Description
Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day soon? This comical reader's theater script with roles for 20 + students is suitable for upper elementary gifted or middle school students studying humor, the Celtic nations, Social Studies, Language Arts or Drama class. This piece could be a one or three day study depending upon how much effort a teacher wants to expand. Or a teacher could assign this product for distance learning students with a few tweaks. #DistanceLearningTPT
This story from the British Isles is spooky, scary and funny all at the same time. It is about a swift-footed and energetic (sprightly) tailor who undertakes to sew some trews (trousers) at night, among the haunted ruins of an old church. Along enters a ghost! You'll just have to see what happens next...
Based on the beloved folk tale by the same name, students will:
- study humor
- focus on their reading, especially in a play format
- strengthen their skills in vocal variety and inflection
- perform for peers in a non-threatening manner
This product comes with:
- A warm up
- Advice in directing reader's theater
- Blocking plot for teacher's staging needs
- Information about the Gaelic language
- Eight page script with roles for 20+ students, some in a chorus!
- Irish Jig video tutorial--taught by two p.e. teachers!
- Original Irish Jig music (2) for use with the piece
Comprehensive? You bet. Created by an award winning drama teacher of 38 years.
