Session Description: Some have characterized the role of fluency as a “bridge” between early and later reading stages. In the early reading stages, students develop oral language and phonemic awareness, learn to apply the alphabetic principle to increasingly complex words, and become familiar with more and more sight words---an ever-growing bank of instantly recognized and retrievable words. Later reading stages are categorized by increased reading skills and comprehension. If readers do not develop adequate levels of fluency, they may become stuck in the middle of the bridge--- able to decode words but with insufficient automaticity to adequately facilitate comprehension. These students typically become reluctant readers--- and this can lead to dire long-term consequences. This webinar explores the multifaceted nature of fluency, instructional implications, and the role of assessment in the intermediate classroom.
