Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the strong focus on closing the achievement gap for all students and the implementation of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), remediating the reading proficiency problems that are present in the state of California is more critical than ever. Research has determined the foundational skills necessary for students to become skilled readers. This study was conducted to determine if cross-age tutoring improves reading fluency. Fifth grade students at a Central Valley elementary school tutored third grade students 20 minutes daily over a 6-week period. A pre- and post Oral Ready Fluency Assessment was administered to the treatment and control group to determine the number of words read correct per minute. An ANCOVA was used to analyze the data and determine if there was a significant difference in the oral reading fluency between the third grade students who participated in cross-age tutoring and those who continued in the regularly scheduled activity of daily independent reading while controlling for preexisting differences. The results suggest that the students who did not participate in cross-age tutoring outperformed the students who did participate.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, the effects of cross age tutoring compared with sustained silent reading were assessed in second grade students. The students in this study were in a self contained second grade classroom. The second graders participating in cross age tutoring were two above grade level readers, two at grade level readers and two below grade level readers. Each of these second graders was paired with a fifth grade student who had received some basic training in how to prompt the second grader while reading. The remaining students in the class participated in sustained silent reading for the same twenty four week period. All of the students' reading fluency and word reading abilities were assessed both before and after the duration of their particular reading activity. The cross age tutoring lasted for a twenty four week period during which the students were observed and anecdotal notes were taken. Results of the pre and post assessments showed that overall, both sustained silent reading as well as cross age tutoring increased student reading abilities when assessed with the Frye Oral Reading Test for fluency as well as the San Diego Quick leveled word list assessment. Cross age tutoring and sustained· silent reading may also have benefits in students' affective attitudes toward reading, causing them to view it as a positive activity.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hispanic students are falling behind their peers in reading fluency and are struggling to close the gap. This study examined the reading fluency influence on 73 Hispanic second and third grade students while receiving reading fluency support from middle school Hispanic tutors. These students were compared to Hispanic second and third grade students not receiving tutoring reading support. All students were assessed before the tutors gave reading support, mid-year and after the reading support finished using a school district fluency measurement. Findings found that students made rapid growth in reading fluency from the beginning of the tutoring support to mid-year. From mid-year to the end of the tutoring support, students continued to make growth but at a slower rate. The study used a Likert scale questionnaire given to the teachers and administrators to evaluate perspectives of the effectiveness of the tutors. The findings indicate that tutors are beneficial in supporting the increase in reading fluency achievement as well as being role-models for young Hispanic students. Results of the study suggest that small group instruction guided by a tutor is beneficial to second and third grade students.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the research has been to examine the effects of a cross-age tutoring program aimed at assisting Hispanic students in comprehension and fluency reading skills. The research process included exploring previous research on the topic and closely observing outcomes of students participating in the cross-age tutorial program. The tutorial program consisted of twenty-four sessions that lasted thirty minutes. Each lesson contained reading practice as well as related games and activities planned by the tutors. The ten Hispanic participants who were tutored were third graders performing at a level II in reading according to the North Carolina End-of-Grade test. The students who were used to tutor the third graders were ten level IV readers in the fifth grade. The research questions that drove the study were: 1) What are some effects when Hispanic students who are not proficient in reading are tutored by non-Hispanic students who are proficient in reading? 2) What are good reading strategies for Hispanic students? The study concluded with all twenty participants passing the End-of-Grade test in addition to other positive effects that will assist in gaining literacy skills. The study does not indicate the cross-age tutoring program alone contributed to students passing the End-of-Grade tests or gaining the positive effects observed.

Download or read book Reading Fluency written by Timothy Rasinski and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-01-21 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
