Reading strategies can be taught at various grade levels using songs as texts. The thought-provoking song "The Greatest Love of All," sung by Whitney Houston, was used with a group of sixth-grade students, using the Reading/Singing strategy. The steps in the reading lesson were: (1) motivate the children so they will eagerly anticipate the lesson; (2) introduce the vocabulary in the song; (3) set a purpose for reading/singing the song; (4) read or sing the song's words; (5) ask questions pertaining to the song; (6) sing the song again; (7) incorporate skills or strategies into the lesson; and (8) extend/enrich the lesson. When using lyrics for reading material as opposed to basal texts, reading pressures are fewer, topics of discussion are often deeper, and overall successes are great. (RS)
