READING FLUENCY HELP AND TIPS FOR TEACHERS AND PARENTS:

This reading fluency packet is perfect for parent-teacher conferences! Provide this resource to parents so they have some tips and tools at their disposal to help their children with fluency and accuracy in their read-aloud time at home.

In this packet, you will receive eight valuable and practical tips for helping children while they are reading out loud.

Embedded in the tips are prompts and activities or strategies to use with the child depending on their area of struggle. Different prompts are used for various issues (for example, there are prompts provided for kids who rely too heavily on phonics and others for students who are not using the context or meaning in the story to help them solve unknown words).

The final two pages are printable reading interest inventories for use in the classroom or with individual students to determine their feelings about reading and about themselves as a reader. These may help determine topics of interest for students in reading and also about specific issues or struggles that the student is having with regards to reading.

NOTE: THIS FILE INCLUDES A DIGITAL DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION!

This product includes a digital option (as well as the no prep printable option). The instructions for utilizing the digital portion appear at the end of the packet.
