Unison Don't read like a robot. (hip hop beat) Let me tell you a little story folks. So I was chillin in class minding my biz when my teacher she calls on me. She says " It's your turn to read aloud" Then like an Icee Pop I freeze. When I opened my mouth to speak the words, my tongue is in a knot. Do I read with expression? Not even close. I sound like a robot. And my teach said Unison "Flip a switch and read it like this!" Rhythmically Did you know that tigers have striped skin not just striped fur? [Voiceover Background] Who knew?
