Additional Strategies/Tips:

• When targeting fluency, use a transparency for tracking instead of a solid sheet of paper or ruler
  
  
• Singing songs improves fluency because there is no stopping
  
  
• Scooping words/phrases helps train the eye to look ahead
  
  
• During Shared Reading- take 1 day to do a cloze reading activity
  
  
• Words Their Way sorts for prefixes and suffixes (spelling inventory should be completed and analyzed)
  
  
• When using the Reader’s Theater strategy – students should each play 3 times, with teacher modeling to demonstrate fluency and “voice”.
  
  
• Independent reading – students should be using books at their independent reading level and should know the purpose for reading (based on the teaching points).
