I’m working on fluency! My strategy is Reread Text
Secret to Success
Readers who want to improve their fluency need to reread a selection of good fit text several times until they can read it smoothly, accurately, and with expression.
What the students do
*Good fit books are ones that are interesting, readable, and understandable for the child.

Secret to Success
Readers who want to improve their fluency need to reread a selection of good fit text several times until they can read it smoothly, accurately, and with expression.
What the students do
- Students pick a paragraph in the good fit book* that they are reading
- Reread that paragraph until they can read it smoothly, read it with expression and read all the words correctly.
- Eventually practice reading the same passage at a quicker rate.
- Choose a different paragraph each day
