Achieve the Core provides guidance on how to implement a weekly reading routine to support the three areas of reading fluency (accuracy, rate, and prosody/expression). This detailed guidance includes in-person, virtual, and limited to technology situations. Please see the attached link for how and when to implement research-based activities such as modeled reading, choral reading, independent practice and student performances.
Research shows that reading fluency is critical for reading success since the better students can read orally, the more deeply they understand and enjoy what they read. A deeper text connection begins to occur as students bridge the meaning of what they read with automatic word recognition and the development of fluency.
The Megabook of Fluency was created to promote reading meaningfully and for deep comprehension through fluency practice. There are over 50 ready-to-use strategies with supporting poems, speeches, rhymes and songs to support fluency instruction.

An invaluable resource!
