  1. Voracious Reading Fluency is key Mini lesson #1

  2. What is a voracious reader? • Readers become more fluent by increasing their volume of reading. • Voracious reading involves having many options for you to read, having a set reading time every single day, teacher(s) reading to students every day, and teachers (s) modeling what it means to be a voracious reader.

  3. Why it matters • Readers whose goal is to improve fluency spend hours each day reading “good-fit books” at school and, if possible, at home. • When increasing your fluency, the key to success is increasing the amount of time you read. • I am going to give you time each day to read. I have noticed some of you are choosing books that are too hard for you to read. You are not able to practice your fluency, because you are spending so much time sounding words out and trying to figure out what the words mean. We are going to work together today to find a book that is a ‘good fit’ for you. When the book you choose is on your reading level and you are interested in it, you will be able to practice reading smoothly and with expression. You will understand what you are reading and ultimately improve your fluency.
