The Gingerbread Pirates Reader's Theater Toolkit for Grades 3-6

Are you students getting excited about the winter holiday season? If you love the book The Gingerbread Pirates by Kristin Kladstrup, your students will love performing the reader's theater script even more. Based on the events from the silly picture book, I have created a reader's theater and reading literature toolkit that BIG KIDS will love to perform in these exciting December days.

This Gingerbread Pirates Reader's Theater Toolkit resource includes:
• 3-page 8-character reader's theater script
• context clue word work
• reader response questions
• post-reading writing prompt
• synonym match
• summary work

Your students will love performing this festive script. Have them perform in multiple groups of eight students in order to showcase their fluency and performing arts talents, while working on comprehension, summarizing, and context clue word work.

Summary: Jim wanted to make gingerbread pirate cookies with his mom for Santa to eat, but he wanted to make sure that Captain Cookie wasn’t eaten and he brought him up to him room. Before falling asleep Jim wished for Captain Cookie to have a ship. So Jim fell asleep and dreamed about an adventure Captain Cookie might have looking for his crew. Then Jim woke up to a brand new pirate ship.

This is a perfect resource to engage students and keep them learning through the excitement of the winter holiday months.
