Fluency
FluencyAssessment and InterventionDetermining the need for interventionFrustrated while reading grade level materialNot participating in classLow standardized test scoreLow comprehensionSlow, choppy readingFrequent errors when reading aloudWhy fluency is importantHigh correlation of WPMC with comprehension
For struggling readers, this relationship holds at every age
Why? Short term memory ~18 seconds: If sentence takes longer than that to readout of your memory buffer
GradeCorrelation% variance accounted for1st.8776%3rd.7861%3Basic Reading Skills vs ComprehensionDecoding Deficits (dysphonetic)Automaticity Deficits (dysorthographic)Found in about 95% of struggling readers
Sound, Fluent, and Expressive BUT Do not understand what they have readFound in about 5% of struggling readers
The true issue is Fluency and Automaticity First question out of my mouth is what is the Rate and Accuracy with grade level texts?4 NOW WHAT????Efficient AssessmentFast QRIEstablish an independent, instructional and frustration reading level for the student
Why?Determine the level of materials needed to intervene based on accuracy and fluencyAccuracy ExpectationsIndependent= 98% and higherInstructional= 95-97%Frustration= 94% and below
Fluency NormsMidwest NormsEnd of Grade Expected Reading Rate:
8th Grade: 170 Words per Minute Correct7th Grade: 160 Words per Minute Correct6th Grade: 150 Words per Minute Correct
Where do we start?Start with the grade level passage1 minute cold read (Running Record **Deviations from print)Calculate accuracy and words per minute correctMove on to the next passage belowContinue until all 3 levels have been establishedFast QRI vs. Informal Reading Inventory/QRINo word listsNo concept questionsNo comprehension questionsNow What???ROARFAST QRI Examples
