Reading Fluency Practice

Over the past week we have spent a lot of time workiing on reading fluency with a focus on 4 major components:  articulation, pace, expression, and accuracy.  I assigned the kids poems to read that were written a little differently than how we usually speak to help them work on building their fluency.  They practiced for a few days and then had to perform a choral reading.  This assignment was a little tougher than you might expect because most kids had to choral read with a partner and doing that while adding expression can be tricky!  They did a great job practicing and preparing though, and you can click on the names below to hear your child's reading his/her assigned poem.  Enjoy!  :o)
