2nd Grade Readers Theater (Children)

Wednesday, February 08, 2012 - 4:15 - 5:15

Location: Greenville Area Public Library

Register by Feb. 2, 2012 Second Graders can participate in an activity in which students, while reading directly from a script, are able to tell an entertaining story.

Readers Theater is an activity in which students, while reading directly from scripts, are able to tell a story in a most entertaining form, without props, costumes, or sets. This is a reading activity, and students are not asked to memorize their lines. They are, however, encouraged to "ham it up" and use intonation and gestures appropriate to their characters and their characters words.

We will be concentrating on a few popular fairy tales as well as some popular library books. The students really enjoy this after-school activity while it promotes literacy and greatly improves reading fluency.

Resources:

Library Donations:

All public libraries depend upon the financial support of businesses and individuals to supplement the income received from local and state government. The Greenville Area Public Library is no exception. While supported by Greenville borough, Hempfield township and Sugar Grove township the library also has benefited from the gifts of many generous donors.

Memory / Honor Gifts:

A monetary contribution may be made to purchase a book to remember or recognize someone special. Memorial and honor gifts enrich the lives of those who use the library and are lasting and thoughtful ways to honor friends, colleagues or loved ones. Gifts are acknowledged with bookplates or memorial plates. For more information, please call 724-588-5490.

Gently Used Materials:

Bring us your used books, DVDs, CDs, videos, and books on tape in good condition. Your generous donations help us grow by increasing the variety of our materials and resources. When a donation is not added to the library's collection, it may be used for the annual book sale. Due to our limited storage space, we cannot take book sale donations until late August. For more information, call 724-588-5490.
