Drama Script & Cards to Teach Divergent, Parallel, and Convergent Lines
This is a dramatized version of a story that famous educator Maria Montessori created. It was recorded by Michael J. Dorer in his 2017 book, The Deep Well of Time and is known in the Montessori community as " The Love Story of the Lines" (yet my version isn't a love story). I adapted his script into a 4-page play (about 10-15 min.) that can be performed with a class forming two lines facing each other while the teacher narrates the script. You do not need to be a Montessori school or own Monte

The 100th Day of School Project - Small Group Reader's Theater
This small group reader's theater is for four students. It will work for 3rd graders but they will need some support. In this script we were introducing the 100th day of school I actually assigned my students the same project where they bring 100 things that represent school or what they've learned. I encourage them to try to be creative with it and so I use the script to get them thinking. In the script, Samantha has been assigned a project for school’s 100th day of school. Her family is tryin

Script: The Not-So-Famous Fables of Bob Aesop
This script was originally written for a 5th and 6th grade drama class. It can be performed by a group as small as 5 or as large as 20+. I write things to be performed by an ensemble - no stars. Every part has a similar number of lines. The performance can be as simple or as complex as you like. It turns out that Aesop had a younger brother named Bob, who also wrote fables. Bob's fables are not as well known, and there's probably a good reason for that. You shouldn't expect any great moral insig

Cursive Lowercase

It's pdf file. I made custom helping lines for each letter and each page has 3 lines (so it still big enough for children who learn cursive first time on paper). First line, it has the letter printed, so they can trace it, second line, it only has the
