Engage your students in decoding and fluency practice throughout the year with the seasonal, thematic, and holidays decodable plays. This bundle includes themed decodable plays that are each written to cover 9 different phonics skills, making differentiation a breeze!
How do these decodable plays work? Students will grab a partner and put on a play! Most scripts will contain back and forth dialogue for 2 students, but some will contain multiple roles.
Love these? I also have non-seasonal decodable partner plays here!
This is a GROWING BUNDLE! That means that you can grab it at a HUGE discount as I am working to add all of the plays. As new plays are added, you will get to download them for free!

These decodable partner plays are 100% aligned with the Science of Reading SOR! You will only see the phonics skills previously taught and very limited high frequency words. Some rebus pictures are used in earlier levels to allow for richer stories. The text is not patterned at all.
These decodables will follow the same scope and sequence as my Science of Reading Guided Curriculum.
How can I use these Decodable Partner Plays in my classroom?
- Partner literacy centers: Once taught the routine, this can easily become an independent partner literacy center in your classroom.
- Individual option: Puppets are included so students have the option of reading and performing each play on their own.
- Small groups: Use the partner plays as an alternative to decodable readers.
- Dramatic play: An optional Decodable Theater set up is included to help you create a meaningful and educational dramatic play theater.
- Classroom performances: Create a family performance night or just put on play performances for your own class!
About the plays:
Each play script is 2-3 pages long and can be printed front and back if desired. Each play has 2 characters. They contain the characters at the top and character icons with highlighting to help students keep their place. Optional character hats, name tags, or puppets are included to help students act out the story.
About the extras:
Mini decodable books are included of each story. These books include the character dialogue. Students can use these mini decodable readers to follow along with the partner plays, or to take home and read to their families.
Looking for more partner activities?
⭐️You may like the Partner Decodable Readers! These differ from the partner plays as they are short decodable stories that each partner will read half of. These are a great option for partner reading.
