We've discussed how challenging it is to fit all the necessary skills into your literacy block with limited time. But what if I told you that focusing on fluency doesn't have to take extra time? It can be seamlessly integrated throughout your day. Game changer, right? In today's episode, my special guest, Aylin Claahsen, shares practical reading fluency activities you can incorporate into your classroom today.Many believe that upper elementary students are already fluent readers, but that's not always true. Fluency involves five key aspects: accuracy, expression, pace, smoothness, and reading for meaning. While this may seem like a lot, Aylin offers five strategies to help you support fluency development in your students.Fluency is the thread that ties reading and comprehension together. Aylin's tips are easy to implement and require no extra time or prep. You can start using these reading fluency activities today to enhance students comprehension, fluency, and their love for reading.Join us in the Stellar Literacy Collective Membership: stellarteacher.com/join!Sign up for my FREE private podcast, the Confident Writer Systems Series, here!Sign up for my FREE Revision Made Easy email series here!Follow me on Instagram @thestellarteachercompany.

“Phonics is the topic that we focus on when we talk about the science of reading, but fluency has got to be part of that equation as well.”Dr. Timothy Rasinski, Professor of Literacy Education at Kent State University, joins us for an inspiring conversation about the importance of developing reading fluency as part of effective literacy instruction. Having written over 200 articles and 50 books, he brings a wealth of knowledge and insights into how fluency acts as the critical bridge between decoding and comprehension.Key Takeaways:Understanding Fluency: Fluency is not just about speed; it encompasses automaticity in word recognition and prosody, which reflects expression in reading.The Art of Teaching Fluency: Effective fluency instruction combines scientific strategies with creative teaching methods to engage students.Repeated Reading and its Impact: Repeated practice improves specific text fluency and enhances general reading abilities.Home and School Collaboration: It is crucial to engage parents in their children's reading development. Simple strategies, like reading and discussing poetry at home, can make a significant difference.The Future of Reading Instruction: Timothy Rasinski, Ph.D. ., emphasizes the need for a comprehensive approach beyond phonics to include motivation and cognition, integrating the art of teaching with the science of reading.Important Timestamps:00:00 His journey from economics to literacy education05:30 The misunderstood aspects of fluency 08:25 Discussion on the effectiveness of repeated reading practice15:36 The impact of balanced daily reading instruction19:30 Practical tips for parents to support reading fluency at home27:55 Comprehensive elements of the Science of Reading research and the future of literacy instructionConnect with Timothy Rasinski, Ph.D. E-mail: trasinsk@kent.edu Website: https://www.timrasinski.com/X: @timrasinski1Just Right Reader Science of Reading Instructional Materials and Resources: https://justrightreader.com/

One major goal in upper elementary education is to help students become fluent readers. But what does that really mean? Fluency goes beyond speed; it encompasses the ability to read words, phrases, and entire sections of text quickly, accurately, and with understanding.Reading fluency serves as the bridge between decoding and comprehension. Strong fluency skills improve both decoding and comprehension because they introduce a level of automaticity. Fluent readers don't need to think about how to read or sound out individual words; they read smoothly and quickly, allowing them to focus more mental energy on comprehension, meaning, purpose, and building knowledge.So, how can we incorporate this knowledge into our classrooms? In this episode, I will share five strategies to build reading fluency with your students. These strategies are practical, fun, and easy to implement. I hope you'll choose one or two of them to implement in your classroom next year.Join us in the Stellar Literacy Collective Membership: stellarteacher.com/join!Sign up for my FREE private podcast, the Confident Writer Systems Series, here!Sign up for my FREE Revision Made Easy email series here!Follow me on Instagram @thestellarteachercompany.

Rebecca Silverman is an expert in how humans learn to read. It's a complex process, she says. First we must connect letters and sounds to decode words in texts. Researchers know a lot about the decoding process and how to teach it. But, beyond that, we must also comprehend what the words in texts are conveying. Comprehension is complex, and researchers know much less about the comprehension process and how to teach it, Silverman tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Episode Reference Links: Rebecca Silverman's Research Lab: Language to Literacy LabConnect With Us:Episode Transcripts >>> The Future of Everything WebsiteConnect with Russ >>> Threads or Twitter/XConnect with School of Engineering >>> Twitter/XChapters:(00:00:00) Introduction to Reading Challenges Host Russ Altman introduces guest Rebecca Sliverman and her research into the complexities of reading.(00:03:53) Decoding vs. Comprehension The breakdown of reading into decoding and comprehension, the challenges associated with each, and the lifelong process of improving these skills.(00:07:18) Variability in Learning to Read  How children learn to read, including the impacts of linguistic comprehension, memory and socio-emotional contexts.(00:09:55) Cross-Cultural Differences in Reading The variability of reading acquisition across languages and cultures, highlighting the components of reading that vary in their developmental trajectory.(00:11:35) Research Challenges and Interventions in Reading Current research on the challenges of reading, particularly in identifying and supporting children with difficulties.(00:15:03) The Role of Technology in Reading The impact of technology on reading, the differences between reading on paper and digital formats, and the potential of educational technology in literacy development.(00:20:38) Importance of Family in Reading DevelopmentHow families play a role in early reading, with emphasis on storytelling and culturally relevant practices. (00:23:52) Challenges for Teachers in Literacy EducationResponsibilities of teachers in teaching literacy and the need for comprehensive support and training for teachers.(00:27:44) Future Directions and the Potential of AI Future research on AI in literacy education, and the importance of human oversight in technological interventions.(00:29:29) Conclusion  Connect With Us:Episode Transcripts >>> The Future of Everything WebsiteConnect with Russ >>> Threads or Twitter/XConnect with School of Engineering >>> Twitter/X

Reading fluency helps students unlock the world, whether they're in kindergarten or a senior in high school. But for far too long, children from specific demographics have struggled to keep pace after moving on from elementary school. To get a handle on how to better address this systemic issue, NWEA conducted a study targeting middle schoolers from historically marginalized or impoverished populations. The findings, according to NWEA Director of Academic Services Laura Hansen, shed light on how certain intervention methods can help students and educators alike close some alarming gaps.

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.01.30.526188v1?rss=1 Authors: Lubineau, M., Potier-Watkins, C., Glasel, H., Dehaene, S. Abstract: Purpose: Which processes induce variations in reading speed in young readers with the same amount of education, but different levels of reading fluency? Here, we tested a prediction of the dual-route model: as fluency increases, these variations may reflect a decreasing reliance on decoding and an increasing reliance on the lexical route. Method: 1,500 French 6th graders passed a one-minute speeded reading-aloud task evaluating fluency, and a 10-minute computerized lexical decision task evaluating the impact of word length, word frequency and pseudoword type. Results: As predicted, the word length effect varied dramatically with reading fluency, with the least fluent group showing a length effect even for frequent words. The frequency effect also varied, but solely in proportion to overall slowness, suggesting that frequency affects the decision stage in all readers, while length impacts poor readers disproportionately. Response times and errors were also affected by pseudoword type (e.g. letter substitutions or transpositions), but these effects did not vary much with fluency. Overall, lexical decision variables were excellent predictors of reading fluency (r=0.62). Conclusion: Our results call attention to middle-school reading difficulties and encourage the use of lexical decision as a test of students' mental lexicon and the automatization of reading.

We've talked about this idea of trying to fit all these different skills into your literacy block, but with what time? It's so difficult to designate time specifically for certain skills when you have so much to cover. So what if I told you focusing on the skill of fluency doesn't have to take up extra time and it can be organically streamlined throughout all parts of your day? Game changer! In today's episode, my special guest, Aylin Claahsen, is sharing powerful and practical tips to increase student reading fluency.Check out Aylin's Fluency Course here!Join us in the Stellar Teacher Reading Membership: stellarteacher.com/membershipTo check out all of the resources from this episode, head to the show notes: https://www.stellarteacher.com/episode108

Jack Fletcher argues in his book, Learning Disabilities from Identification to Intervention, that subcategories of learning disabilities are arbitrary, and that based on what we know about learning, Reading Fluency should not be an SLD because all areas of learning require automaticity. Meanwhile, reading fluency across the nation is lacking proficiency. Considering reading fluency in this current climate may be a serious lack of consideration for these trends in general education.

099: Dr. Tim Rasinski is an educator, researcher, writer, and director of an award-winning reading clinic. Today he shares what the research tells us about reading fluency - and how to apply this knowledge in artful ways.Click here for the show notes for this episode.

Recently as Dr. Rob Jackson dove headfirst into attempting to understand The Science of Reading, he found himself immersed in The Reading Wars with Whole Language or Balanced Literacy on one side and The Science of Reading on the other.  As he researched the divide between the two, he encountered a side skirmish and made himself a note to come back to it. Lost in the vitriol over phonics instruction was the respect given to or denied to fluency as a metric to pay attention to.At a basic level, fluency is a reader's ability to read with speed, accuracy, and proper expression. If comprehending what they read is the goal, children must be able to read fluently. This is true in reading aloud and in reading silently. In many ways, fluency is the bridge between word recognition and reading comprehension. Join Dr. Jackson as he attempts to peel apart the individual strands of reading comprehension and build our shared understanding of what EdLeaders need to know about learning to read.www.drrobjackson.com@Dr_Rob_Jackson@EdLeaderPod

Too many students in our classrooms struggle with learning to read. This does not need to occur. Research has shown that approximately 95% of all students can be taught to read at grade level, including those with learning disabilities and dyslexia. How can we meet the needs of every student in today's classrooms? We'll discuss the characteristics of students who become our struggling readers along with research-supported and classroom-proven approaches to successfully address these students' needs.

An Introductory Sanskrit Reader: Improving Reading Fluency (Brill, 2021) aims to help students start reading original Sanskrit literature. When we study ancient languages, there often is quite a gap between introductory, grammar-based classes and independent reading of original texts. This Reader bridges that gap by offering complete grammar and vocabulary notes for 40 entertaining, thought-provoking or simply beautiful passages from Sanskrit narrative and epic, as well as over 130 subhāṣitas (epigrams). These readings are complemented by review sections on syntax, word formation and compounding, a 900-word study vocabulary, complete transliterations and literal translations of all readings, as well as supplementary online resources. The Reader can be used for self-study and in a classroom, both to accompany introductory Sanskrit courses and to succeed them. Listners might also be interested in Sanskrit Flashcards, Sanskrit Posters, the Sanskrit Studies Podcast, and the Sanskrit Dictionary. Raj Balkaran is a scholar, educator, consultant, and life coach.

You’ve probably heard me talk about All About Me Books, and you may be wondering what goes in this kind of document.  In today’s podcast episode, I walk you through All About Me Books (let’s just call them AAMBs) – why to draft them, what kind of information to include, how to format them, and how to use them in your advocacy.   I like to start an AAMB with a good description of the child and the way the child’s diagnoses affect the child.  Then, I recommend that parents organize the additional pages by category.  Maybe that looks like a page each for OT, PT, Speech, academics, etc.  Maybe it looks like a page each for Reading, Reading Fluency, Math Computation, and Math Fluency.  However it looks will be unique to the child, but communicating it in an organized, objective manner will be such an asset to the rest of the IEP team.  I always end an AAMB with an expression of gratitude, an offer to help in any way, and a willingness to address any questions or concerns.  This kind of communication goes such a long way in setting a collaborative tone on an IEP team.   I’ve also got a Freebie on my website that describes All About Me Books.  Hop over the link to download yours!!! https://ashleybarlowco.com/all-about-me-books

50 Reading Activities for English Class

Words-per-minute or word-correct-per-minute? This podcast tells you which one and describes two simple, effective strategies that can be used to develop reading fluency.

How much attention should you give to standardized reading rates for reading fluency? Some, but not a lot. This podcast explains.

This podcast describes a strategy to develop reading fluency for severely struggling readers, or any other readers reading at RL 1 or RL 2. The materials for this strategy can be found at www.Readocity.com

Round robin reading is when a teacher goes around the reading table or class and asks students to read parts of a text out loud. This should never be used. This podcast describes 7 alternatives to round robin reading.

This video podcast explains two terms related to reading fluency: expression and prosody. Reading with expression is not at all important. Reading prosody is.

Reading is one of the hardest skills to learn in early development. Any parent or teacher can attest to the struggle students go through on their journey to reading fluency and comprehension. So, what is the secret to successfully teaching English in schools? Guests Dr. Victoria Locke, director of research at Istation, and Dr. Bill Fahle, SVP of development research at Istation, attest that the science-backed method of the “Big Five” is the solution to student and teacher struggles. MarketScale’s EdTech Podcast dives deep into this education strategy, unpacking how the “Big Five” foundations for reading can help every student become a proficient reader. In 1997, the National Reading Panel distilled years of research and studies into the groundwork for the “Big Five,” a series of steps that evolve to fluency: Phonemic Awareness Phonics Fluency with text Comprehension Vocabulary Like scaffolding, Dr. Locke said, the steps build upon each other, starting first with the early skill of phonemic awareness. Perhaps the most standout feature of the “Big Five” is its ability to cater to each individual student. “(The) Big Five helps to meet students where they are,” Dr. Locke said. An adaptive assessment test determines the student’s level of understanding in each individual step, resulting in a custom overview of a student’s weaknesses and strengths. Dr. Fahle explains how a computer algorithm curates the test as the student is taking it, measuring their ability on a highly customized level. Grounded in science, it’s clear the Big Five carries weight. With proper support from the school system and adequate teacher training, the Big Five can have a successful implementation in any school.

Now more than ever, teachers have a lot on their plate. In addition to the regular responsibilities of lesson planning and grading, additional pressures to foster classroom community, focus on student wellness, increase standardized test scores, and keep up with the competitive Instagram teacher community can leave anyone feeling stressed and pulled in many different directions. But Melissa wants to help teachers feel more in control, helping them use their time more effectively by offering high quality, research-based curriculum products and actionable advice so teachers no longer just get by but truly thrive in the classroom each and every day. Melissa is the curriculum designer behind Teacher Thrive. Melissa explains how her foray into curriculum design happened organically, long before she had even heard about TeachersPayTeachers and while she was very much in the trenches of the classroom herself. What was a gig to craft curriculum for her district ended up aligning with her stage of life all the better, and Melissa has never looked back. Now, Melissa's blog and shop allow her to reach even more teachers, giving them the tools they need inside the classroom and the advice they need to hear. While Melissa has crafted curricula for many different areas, Melissa deep dives into strategies for reading fluency, providing tips that can be immediately implemented no matter what grade level or subject you teach. In this episode, you'll hear, -How your own district may be just the place to start when designing curriculum -Why teacher wellness (and particularly your sleep) play a big role in your success in and out of the classroom -What exactly reading fluency means—and the strategies you can use in your classroom to promote reading fluency Links mentioned: Melissa's website, blog, and ready-made downloads https://teacherthrive.com/ Melissa's Choral Reading freebie download https://teacherthrive.com/2019/10/choral-reading-and-reading-fluency.html
