Shinn, Mark R.; And Others – School Psychology Review, 1992
Examined relation of Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM) oral reading fluency to reading process from theoretical perspective. Tested reading models using confirmatory factor analysis procedures with 114 third- and 124 fifth-grade students. Tested subjects on tasks requiring decoding, comprehension, cloze items, written retell, and CBM oral reading…

Stage, Scott A. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2001
Program evaluation uses hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) to evaluate 99 ethnically diverse second-graders' growth in oral reading fluency using curriculum-based measurement (CBM). Results reveal that first-grade reading performance significantly predicted initial second-grade reading performance. Argues that the use of HLM with normative CBM…

Li, Daqi; Nes, Sandra – Reading Improvement, 2001
Investigates effects of paired reading on reading fluency and reading accuracy of four English-as-a-second-language (ESL) students with limited English proficiency. Shows that the students benefited from the paired reading intervention and demonstrated steady improvement in reading fluency and accuracy. Indicates that paired reading can serve as a…

Tingstrom, Daniel H.; And Others – Psychology in the Schools, 1995
Reports the result of an intervention designed to increased oral reading fluency and listening previewing. Three reading-impaired African American male elementary students exposed to the program evidenced substantial increases on correct words per minute and percent comprehension accuracy, and substantial decreases in mean number of errors. (JPS)

Lionetti, Timothy M.; Cole, Christine L. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2004
This study compared the effects of two different listening while reading (LWR) rates on words correct per minute, accuracy, generalization, and comprehension for four 4th- and 5th-graders. It was hypothesized the effects of LWR would increase as the rate of LWR more closely approximated the reader's actual oral reading rate. An alternating…

Madelaine, Alison; Wheldall, Kevin – International Journal of Disability Development and Education, 2004
A significant amount of literature has been published on curriculum-based measurement (CBM) in the last decade. Much of the conceptual work on CBM was done in the 1980s and early 1990s. This review concentrates on the large body of research published within the last 10 years on CBM of reading, including further research demonstrating its technical…

Danielson, Kathy Everts; Harrington, Jeanne – Reading Horizons, 2005
Multigenre texts are a recent trend in children's books. These types of books can enhance students' comprehension and provide models of various types of writing genres. They can be used in differentiating instruction and increasing fluency when transformed into readers' theater texts. Many examples of multigenre books are provided in this article.

Van Keer, H.; Verhaeghe, J.P. – Teaching and Teacher Education: An International Journal of Research and Studies, 2005
This study compared a year-round intensive coaching of teachers (35h) with a restricted in-service course (13h), designed on the basis of research-based components of effective professional development of teachers. Both courses were developed to innovate reading comprehension instruction in elementary schools. Fourteen second- and 16 fifth-grade…

Dunn, Erin K.; Eckert, Tanya L. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2002
Several considerations need to be made when monitoring student reading progress using Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM): the instructional level of the student, the type of goal set for the student, and the material selected. Although research has demonstrated that long-term goals based on the student's instructional match are most sensitive to…

Katzir, Tami; Shaul, Shelly; Breznitz, Zvia; Wolf, Maryanne – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2004
Cross-linguistic studies provide a unique tool for the identification of universal processes in oral and written language, both in development and in breakdown ("Annual Review of psychology," 52, 369?396). Examining the differential strengths and weaknesses of children with dyslexia in contrasting orthographies can help illumine both the more…

Goodson, F. Todd; Goodson, Lori Atkins – Voices from the Middle, 2005
The authors acted on their belief that familiarity with text and repeated readings of it would help students with fluency, comprehension, and confidence. They assembled a list of "cuttings" excerpts of full-length books from which seventh-grade students could choose to prepare a public reading. After working alone, in pairs, and reading for a…

Birch, Barbara M. – Lawrence Erlbaum Associates (Bks), 2007
This book remains a comprehensive, myth-debunking examination of how L1 features (orthographic system, phonology, morphology) can influence English L2 reading at the "bottom" of the reading process. It provides a thorough but very accessible linguistic/psycholinguistic examination of the lowest levels of the reading process. It is both theoretical…

Schilling, Stephen G.; Carlisle, Joanne F.; Scott, Sarah E.; Zeng, Ji – Elementary School Journal, 2007
This study focused on the predictive validity of fluency measures that comprise Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS). Data were gathered from first through third graders attending 44 schools in 9 districts or local educational agencies that made up the first Reading First cohort in Michigan. Students were administered DIBELS…

Rey, Victoria M.; Karstadt, Roberta – NADE Digest, 2006
Students derive more benefits from attending developmental reading courses that are an integral part of the academic curricula (Maxwell, 1997). Colleges that pair their developmental reading courses with content courses achieve the objective of integrating the developmental courses into the academic curricula. This article describes the model and…
