As long as the singer has the written lyrics in front of her or him, she/he is reading. I have an article coming out in Reading Psychology this fall that showed over a year's improvement in reading fluency and achievement among struggling readers as a result of 3 months of an intervention program that focused on students learning to sing. tr Timothy Rasinski 404 White Hall Kent State University Kent, OH 44242 330-672-0649 Cell -- 330-962-6251 FAX 330-672-2025 [EMAIL PROTECTED] informational website: www.timrasinski.com professional development DVD: http://www.roadtocomprehension.com/ <https://exchange.kent.edu/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.roadtocomprehension.com/>

I will let you know how the sessions turn out and feed back! Along the lines of this thread--I had a disagreement with my husband when I mentioned that I thought singing was a form of reading aloud. This though cam to me after reading Ginger's "from the heart and the brain" and how reading has to be evoke emotions. He disagreees. I absolutely learn so much from ya'll!!
