What's a 4th grade teacher supposed to do on the day before vacation to keep her sanity in the classroom? Why a variety of things of course.
A favorite activity of mine is to do a reader's theater during the language arts block. I usually start by giving the students a chance to look over the script for a brief time to see what part they would like to read before they get into their assigned groups. This year I used Thanksgiving at the Toppletons. I liked the length of this script as it allowed for a dividing of the class into a variety of possible group sizes. I usually like to do groups that are sized to allow for each student to have a couple of parts--more oral reading practice.
Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving!
