“ain‘t it fun to be a bun?” The Rhyming rabbits about a cute little rabbit born in a world that doesn‘t accept rhyming or talking more than a few words. This story is about a little rabbit who stays true to who he is no matter what anyone else may say or do. This book would be fantastic for a Readers Theater (RT) since there are 5 characters including the narrator, it would be fast
LauraLeighn and fun for students. This book offers a wide range of reading levels for the parts, with the narrator having the hardest lines and the Dr.Pill having only a few words. The RT of the book would work well with UDL 1.3 Offer alternatives for visual information in the form of a play. This would also be great for ESOL strategy 2. Promote cooperation (small groups) as well since this book can be read and performed as a whole class or in small groups. 4y
LauraLeighn To really bring the lesson about poetry and rhyming together I think fun-a day rhyming activities would be a great addition after the RT activities. https://fun-a-day.com/rhyming-activities-for-children/ #ucflae3414SU20 4y
DrSpalding I agree that readers theater could work nicely for this five character story. Ladybird books have been around for quite some time. 4y
