Fluency is the ability to…• read accurately and quickly
• Recognize words automatically
• Group words quickly to make meaning
• Read aloud effortlessly and with expression
Level 1 – word by word
Level 2 – 2 word phrases
Level 3 – 3 or 4 word phrase groups
Level 4 – larger, meaningful phrase groups

Fluency can be our bridge if we go beyond rate and accuracy. Fluency gets us to the text. Prosody helps us understand the text.

3 Components of Fluency
• Automaticity (accuracy & rate) – gets you through the text
• Prosody (expression) – carries the meaning of the text & allows you to understand the text
• Thought (fluidity of thought) – allows us to glean concepts from text, pull it together, and apply it
Turn and Talk – How do each of these components help with comprehension?

Silly Sentences
Turn and Talk – How do each of these components help with comprehension?

• Provide sentence with no punctuation
• Groups rewrite the sentence 3 times, adding punctuation differently each time to give each sentence a different meaning, due to prosody.
