Reading With Fluency

As we enter this next part of second grade, we are working on reading more fluently. Not only do we need to do this when we read aloud but also when we read in our heads. In doing so, we have discussed and practiced these skills:

• Reread aloud and in your head.
• Scoop words into longer phrases.
• Talk like the characters.
• Make your voice match the mood.
• Read with a "just-right" pace.

These are all skills that students can be practicing at home as well!
