 * Aaron Shepard’s RT Page
 * RT Scripting Sheets
 * RT Tips: A Guide to Readers Theatre
 * Reader's Theater Scripts and Plays

1. Choose a variety of above-level, on-level, and below-level scripts from Reader's Theater Scripts and Plays.

 * ==== Make multiple copies of the selected scripts (enough for each member of the cast and a copy for you). ====

2. Review Aaron Shepard's RT Page and his RT Tips: A Guide to Readers Theatre in particular to develop a good understanding of using Readers Theatre in the classroom.

 * ==== Provide photocopied selected pages from these sites and distribute them to students as assigned reading the night before the first session. ====

4. For Session 2, I will select one scripting sheet from Aaron Shepard's RT Scripting Sheets for each group.

 * ==== I will make enough copies so that each member of the group has a copy of the scripting sheet. ====
 * ==== I will choose one scripting sheet for modeling and create a transparency. ====

==== 5. For Session 3, following our science lesson on the Moon I will provide select Apollo Moon Mission books for students to develop a Readers Theatre script where they will be expected to explain the where, when, why, and how key events occur during the Apollo Moon Missions to the Moon within their Readers Theatre scripts.====
 * ==== Assign a different text selection for each group, keeping in mind appropriate levels. ====
