We are doing repeated readings on the song called the Icicle Ball by Karen Rupprecht and Pam Minor.
( Click the following link to see or print the text and hear a sample of the song. http://www.songsforteaching.com/calendarweatherseasons/theicicleball.php .

Repeated readings help students with fluency, accuracy, and sight words.
I create a movie for the students with the music so we can read the lyrics and sing the song as we learn it together.
I use the same video with pictures of the vocabulary we will cover as I read the text. (See below.) Students can follow along, as this has been proven to support struggling readers, too.

Movie with me reading the lyrics as text.
I also have created a QR code for the students to listen to me read the lyrics later in the week as they track the text or read along with me during "Listen to Reading" workstation.
