Book excerpt: Reading fluency has been identified as a key component of proficient reading. Research has consistently demonstrated significant and substantial correlations between reading fluency and overall reading achievement. Despite the great potential for fluency to have a significant outcome on students’ reading achievement, it continues to be not well understood by teachers, school administrators and policy makers. The chapters in this volume examine reading fluency from a variety of perspectives. The initial chapter sketches the history of fluency as a literacy instruction component. Following chapters examine recent studies and approaches to reading fluency, followed by chapters that explore actual fluency instruction models and the impact of fluency instruction. Assessment of reading fluency is critical for monitoring progress and identifying students in need of intervention. Two articles on assessment, one focused on word recognition and the other on prosody, expand our understanding of fluency measurement. Finally, a study from Turkey explores the relationship of various reading competencies, including fluency, in an integrated model of reading. Our hope for this volume is that it may spark a renewed interest in research into reading fluency and fluency instruction and move toward making fluency instruction an even more integral part of all literacy instruction.

Martinez and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This study used a multiple baseline across students design to examine the effects on fluency rate and comprehension of six African American adolescent males. The participants were between the ages of 12 and 15 years, referred by their teacher/administrator as being "at risk" for reading problems. The repeated readings intervention involved vocabulary instruction, model reading, systematic error correction, and performance feedback. Culturally/gender relevant materials were used in the intervention. Results from this study support the effectiveness of repeated readings to increase the reading fluency for all six participants, however, a functional relationship between the intervention and the improvement in the students' ORF scores was only supported by five of the six participants. There were no substantial improvements in the comprehension skills of the participants.

Book Effects of Repeated Readings and Reading Homework on Reading Fluency

Download or read book Effects of Repeated Readings and Reading Homework on Reading Fluency written by Tracie Kimm and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing oral reading fluency skills is vital to young readers. It was hypothesized that repeated readings, introduced at school and reread three to five times during the week with an adult at home, would build fluency. This study was conducted with a group of 18 second-grade students. Through the use of BRI (Basic Reading Inventory) assessments, and an Oral Reading Checklist and Rubric, the hypothesis was supported with increasing reading accuracy rates, instructional reading levels, and elements of prosody in students' oral readings.

Book The Effects of Oral Repeated Readings on the Fluency and Comprehension Skills of Urban Elementary aged Students

Download or read book The Effects of Oral Repeated Readings on the Fluency and Comprehension Skills of Urban Elementary aged Students written by Amanda L. Yurick and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This study examined the effects of repeated reading practice on oral reading fluency and comprehension skills of elementary-aged students. Eight fifth-grade students, determined to be reading below grade level, and recognized by the classroom teacher as needing additional reading instruction participated in the study. A multiple baseline across subjects experimental design was used, with an initial baseline period of ten sessions. Participants entered the intervention in pairs according to similar reading levels. During each repeated reading session student pairs orally read, alternating paragraphs, to one another for a practice period of ten minutes. Students used a specified correction procedure when miscues occurred during the practice period. Following practice, each student participated in a one-minute timed trial, which was scored by the researcher for number of words read per minute and number of miscues committed by the reader. A cloze procedure comprehension assessment was done when the student reached the fluency criterion (one hundred eighty words read per minute). The dependent variables in this study were number of words read in one minute, number of miscues committed, and number of comprehension questions answered correctly. Results indicate that students' oral reading fluency improved with practice, miscues decreased with practice, and comprehension skills significantly improved overall. No word recognition skill gains were observed.
