Fluency Is for Everyone: Principles for Incorporating Fluency Instruction in the Classroom.
Rasinski, Timothy V.
Methods shown to be effective in helping less fluent readers develop fluency suggest a set of principles that teachers may find helpful in designing regular classroom activities for fluency development. These principles include: (1) repeated reading of one text or meeting target words repeatedly in a variety of texts; (2) teacher modeling of fluent reading; (3) direct instruction in fluency and feedback; (4) support during reading, such as choral reading; (5) reading texts in multi-word chunks; and (6) reading easy materials. Informed and creative teachers can design fluency-related instruction and activities that meet the specific needs of their individual classrooms. (Twenty references are attached.) (RS)
