Putting the Fun Back into Fluency Instruction
Cahill, Mary Ann; Gregory, Anne E.
Reading Teacher, v65 n2 p127-131 Oct 2011
Based on recent research in fluency instruction, the authors present a scenario in which a teacher focuses her fluency instruction on authentic fluency tasks based in performance. Beginning with establishing a student-friendly definition of fluency and culminating with student engagement in fun fluency activities, this article explores the possibilities for bringing joy back into repeated reading practice. Directions for creating a fun fluency kit for classroom use are included.
