Fluency
There are three indicators of fluent reading: accuracy, rate, and prosody.
Accuracy
Fluent readers pronounce words correctly when reading orally.
Rate
Fluent readers read a text at an appropriate rate of speed, neither too fast nor too slow.
Prosody
To read with appropriate expression, and includes emphasis of certain words, variation in pitch, and pausing.
Decodable text
The frequent use of decodable text is important to build fluency in young readers who are acquiring basic phonics skills and high-frequency sight words.
Monitored oral reading
The teacher should read the text aloud, modeling appropriate accuracy, rate, and expression. Student will then read aloud the same text. The teacher will then give feedback to the student. - helps with accuracy
Repeated readings
Repeated readings of the same text improves fluency.
Media-assisted reading
The students will first follow along to a recorded reading by pointing to each word. Eventually, the student should be able to read the text fluently without the assistance of the recording.
Phrase-cued reading
Phrase-cued reading lessons use a text that has been specially marked by the teacher. The goal is to get students to move beyond word-by-word reading and to recognize phrases in sentences and read them appropriately.
