Building Reading and Writing Fluency

Details

This writing and reading fluency program will teach you how to enhance your student's fluency through targeted activities using a specific grouping approach. You will learn specific station and activity suggestions that focus on phonics, word work, sight words, reading fluency, and writing fluency.

While this reading and writing course is best for most students in the primary and elementary grades, it could also benefit older students still grappling with writing and reading fluency. You will design a plan of action that can be utilized to develop fluency stations in your classroom, and you will leave the course with templates, tools, and graphic organizers ready to be used in your classroom.
