What are some engaging ways to encourage repeated oral reading for fluency development?
~The Five-Day Fluency Plan: All children are expected to be able to read the Houghton Mifflin grade-level text fluently with at least 90% accuracy. Use this five-day plan each week to scaffold support for children as they learn to read the grade-level text each week. ~Repeated Reading of Instructional Level Text: Students practice reading short, instructional-level texts (50 -125 words) at least three times. After each reading, they receive feedback from a tutor, peer, or parent. ~Choral Reading: A motivational technique that provides students with supported practice. Students practice reading the text several times and then perform to their peers or others. The use of shorter text with a good rhythm such as poems, songs and shorter repetitive texts is preferable.
