Lyrics
Different character views
There’s a voice in your head to let you say things
Let you read things
Without speaking
The same voice in ya head that told you not too
Go outside or maybe find what to do
Use that voice to read along in the story
Change your voice for different people in the story
For example, Hi I’m Roger
Hey there Roger my name’s Connor
Making the different voice can help you see things
You couldn’t normally see just by reading
Kind of like the fox from the three little pigs
Are huffin puffin you know what he did
The three little pigs replied once again
Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin
Multiple voices while you’re reading
Can help you understand the characters feelings
The voice in ya head narrates the story
The way you read things or if it’s boring
Reading with emotion
Different voices can help you understand
A character’s choices
