Reflection
What went well is that the children were enjoying playing the role of different characters, and they were excited when they
were giving answers, and the questions were exciting for the children. Also, the post-reading was good, since it shows that
children were enjoying the script and they really love it when they were going to change roles.
It would be better if I gave them a script writing activity. So, next time I will give them some worksheets that they can use,
where they can write a script form their own experience in the classroom.
