Fluent reading is the bridge between having to decode every single word and reading automatically with

understanding of the text and appropriate expression. Toward the end of first grade and beginning of second grade, we see many students who can read just about

anything we place in front of them. But they sound like robots! It’s our next job in the reading realm to give

them opportunities to develop fluency. This packet will help you explain fluency to parents and give you

classroom tips and strategies to promote fluent reading.

What is Fluency?

Page 3: & Reed · Fluent reading is the bridge between having to decode every single word and reading automatically with understanding of the text and appropriate expression. Toward the end

One fun way to practice fluent reading is with this "Big Voice--Little Voice" activity. You can find this mini clipboard in the scrapbooking section at Walmart. Explain to students that sometimes the things we say need a BIG voice. If we won an award, would we say “I won an award."? Or...would we say, "I WON THE AWARD!!!!!!" Likewise, we sometimes need a little voice. “ ‘I'm really scared,’ said the little boy” would need a weak, timid voice.

Attach these free printables to a regular sized clipboard and a mini clipboard and let students practice reading them with a BIG voice and a little voice.

“I’m scared,” said the girl.

The mouse sneaked out of

the hole.

Drip. Drip. Drop. The gentle rain

fell.

I tip-toed through the

house.

In the still of the night, the stars

shine.

“Let’s use our quiet voices,” said

the teacher.

I promise this won’t hurt a bit.

Is it bedtime yet?

No one made a peep.
