to students to read are only read once, students only read small amounts of text, and
teachers do not give feedback.
✔✔Students who are likely to need fluency support: - ✔✔Have a limited vocabulary and
limited background knowledge, have processing speed or attention challenges, and are
receiving reading intervention in other skill areas.
✔✔Automaticity and fluency: - ✔✔Are different, but related processes.
✔✔Silent, independent reading ______________________: - ✔✔Has not been proven
effective as an instructional technique.

✔✔Which activity works best for increasing fluency? - ✔✔Repeated readings.
✔✔Which activity promotes fluency in students? - ✔✔Reading a book that is at the right
level for independent reading, receiving guidance when reading aloud, and listening to
someone model fluent reading.
