This week I am sharing two parodies of "Call Me Maybe" with students. One is the Cookie Monster singing about sharing cookies in "Share it Maybe" and the second has lyrics that I found and changed a little to fit our school about reading called "Read It Maybe." I will be taking videos/photos of students in the library the next few weeks to use in a video "Read It Maybe" and I will share the video with students when it is done. If you would like to see the Cookie Monster video, click on the link under Online Resources. Here are our lyrics to the video we are making,

Read It Maybe

We know that reading is sweet,
A book can be such a treat,
Read every day of the week,
and you’ll be on your way!

This one book seemed to just shout, 

Come on and please check me out,

I wonder what it's about,

and now I'm on my way.

All the pages turning

Cur-i-os-it-y is burning

Checking out and then returning, 

Always reading always learning!

Hey, I just met you,

and this is crazy.

But here's a book now,

so read it maybe…

I. know you'll like it,

so don't be lazy.

Just take this book now,

and read it maybe…

Hey I just met you,

and this is crazy.

But here's a book now,

so read it maybe…

and all the other books

they can't escape me,

but here's a book now,

so read it maybe..

Just come inside for a look,

and when you find that right book,

I promise you you'll be hooked,

And then you’re on your way.

It's all right here on the shelf,

It's Informational wealth,

and you can find it yourself,

then you’ll be on your way.

All the pages turning

Cur-i-os-it-y is burning

Checking out and then returning, 

Always reading always learning!

Hey, I just met you,

and this is crazy,

But here's a book now,

so read it maybe…

I know you'll like it,

so don't be lazy,

Just take this book now,

and read it maybe…

Hey I just met you,

and this is crazy,

But here's a book now,

so read it maybe…

and all the other books

they can't escape me,

but here's a book now,

so read it maybe...
