Students will act out the inspirational story of Helen Keller and her teacher and friend, Anne Sullivan, who helped her become the first blind and deaf person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. Readers will learn about the struggles of Helen Keller's early life and how Anne Sullivan guided her through them. 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 students to get involved in the same activity and feel successful! Students will gain confidence in their reading fluency through performance, regardless of their current reading ability. While performing with others, students will practice performance, interacting cooperatively, reading aloud, and using expressive voices and gestures to better tell the story. These drama scripts for students are a great way to teach literacy and engage all learners!
