Great Public Schools Begin With Us! NEA’s Read Across America The lyrics to “Leer” (“To Read”) "Leer" "To Read" Este gato engorrado Me trae todo emocionado Por leer Cuentos serios y de locura Del pasado y vida futura Para leer Tengo que hallar el tiempo Y disfrutar dese momento De leer Yo tengo mucha razon De promover la educacion Aprendiendo a leer Chorus Y leer, leer, le-er Muchos libros otra vez Este Marzo es el mes Para leer, para leer, Quiero leer, leer, le-er (Repeat Chorus) Este Marzo es el mes Para leer, para leer Quiero leer, leer, le-er There’s this wise, sombreroed feline, That’s got me going in a bee line For a place to read Books of fact and books of history Fairy tales and books of mystery So we can read Its up to me to find the hour Letting words release their power When I read And I think it stands to reason That every day is in the season When we must read Chorus And to read, to read, to read So Doctor Seuss we celebrate And March second is the date For us to read, for us to read For us to read, to read, to read Putting Kids First • Promoting Professional Excellence • Improving the Well-Being of School Employees
