President Reagan "Tear Down This Wall" Brandenburg Gate Speech-Reader's Theatre
$5
Watch the Preview
Another great Presidential Speech in the American History Collection!
A FULL 15-page Reader's Theatre Script of President Ronald Reagan's speech "Tear Down This Wall." The speech has been abridged, but all excerpts are included in the packet, in addition to a QR code leading to a full video of President Reagan's speech at the Brandenburg Gate. It has been written with 20 parts but can be adjusted. It can easily accommodate 30-40 students.
When presented, the speech is approximately 15 minutes.
Reagan's "Tear Down That Wall" is the perfect opportunity to actively engage your students in a history lesson. Use this crucial moment in American History as a catalyst for students to work on their presentation skills while gaining a deeper understanding of Reagan's important speech. Reagan was a skilled orator, and this speech is a prime example of that. When at all possible, I have created the script to mirror President Reagan's speaking cadence when he gave the speech live.
Included in the packet are three essay prompts with writing pages. Specific instructions and notes for Teachers are also included.

Hi, I’m Kim! I’m an educator with a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Elementary Education and more than 30 years of classroom experience.
I started The Literature Lady because I wanted to make reading come alive for students—and make lesson planning a lot easier for teachers. I create resources that were way too time-consuming to create while teaching full-time, so that now you don’t have to! My passion is creating engaging, low-prep resources, such as novel studies, Word Noodle vocabulary games, and reader’s theatre scripts, that help kids fall in love with books while building real skills.
When I’m not writing or designing new lessons, you’ll find me teaching right here on the TeacherStore.io community platform! The Young Scholar Academy is an online small group learning community that teaches homeschool students in grades 1-8. We teach core classes, electives, one-on-one tutoring, and so much more! As Tiffany would say, "Come for the classes, stay for the community!"
I am also a fun of reading, baking, traveling, or hanging out with my husband, our two college-aged sons, and our dogs, Maisie and Sophie.
