Holiday Partner Plays for 4th and 5th grades: These EIGHT partner plays are intended to be used as fluency-building activities that 4th-5th students can do with a partner. They require minimal teacher support, thereby allowing teachers to work with other small groups. For teachers who implement reading centers, these plays are perfect for “Read to Someone” activities.
It comes with a BONUS recording sheet. After reading the scripts, students answer the comprehension questions that accompany each script.
This set includes eight independent scripts that will allow your students to "travel around the world" learning about the Christmas traditions in eight other countries:
Australia
France
Germany
Sweden
Japan
India
England
Mexico
Background on this set of plays: I wrote this original set of eight holiday partner plays a few years ago and posted them in my TpT store. Then, in 2018, a teacher wrote to me and asked me to consider writing additional holiday scripts. She explained that she would truly appreciate having at least 14 unique holiday scripts for her class of 28 students. She shared her idea of giving each pair of students a different holiday script, and having them read it in front of the class as part of a holiday performance. I thought this was a great idea! After all, I know how "excited" kids get during the last week before Winter Break, and I realized that this would be an engaging, fun holiday reading activity to keep kids focused during those crazy days. If you would like to facilitate a holiday partner play reading performance in your classroom, I invited you to check out my second set of holiday partner plays.
