The Reader Boogaloo
I’m a reader, and I’m here to say
I read different genres, and that’s OK!
I read for facts and I read for fun
I read all the books, and I love each one.
Fiction books, nonfiction books, and digital, too.
Doing the reader Boogaloo!

From the very beginning our readers learn:
Fiction/Nonfiction Text Pairings
Nonfiction Song (to the tune of Mary Had a Little Lamb)
Nonfiction tells me facts, tells me facts, tells me facts
Nonfiction tells me facts, so I can know.
It tells me what things ARE,
what they HAVE, what they CAN.
Nonfiction tells me facts, so I can know.

The Researcher Song (to the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star)
When I research, I begin
By asking questions: Who? What? When?
Information I will find,
Credible sources are the best kind.
Then I share with everyone
Once my research is all done.
