The Stuck Yo-Yo: A Play to Read Aloud

Read it with a partner, then read it again with feeling.

Read the play

Read the play with a partner three times. One partner reads Ravi and the other reads Lola. Switch parts each time. Words in ( ) tell you how to say a line, so do not read them out loud. The numbers show the lines.

The Stuck Yo-Yo

1Ravi: (happily) Look at my new yo-yo! It is red and shiny.

2Lola: Can you make it spin up and down?

3Ravi: Watch this. Down it goes... Oh no! It is stuck at the bottom.

4Lola: (calmly) Do not worry. Give the string a quick little tug.

5Ravi: Tug... tug... tug...

6Ravi: It came back up! I did it!

7Lola: Let's go show Grandpa!

8Ravi: (whispering) Shh. Grandpa is asleep on the couch.

9Lola: (whispering) Then we will show him after his nap.
