Use word walls: use affixes, proofreading, dictionary use, spelling options, word identification, **by 3rd grade, children have moved from word to word reading into fluent reading. Elements of fluent reading: accuracy, prosody, reading speed. Chaos came from a greek god named chaos who made chaos: ex. Achilles came from the greek god who got shot in the heel and then they named it the achilles. Fluency instruction is an important part of reading instruction. Instruction plus reading practice: children develop fluency as readers and writers through explicit instruction and lots of practice reading and writing, explicit instruction should be provided in word recognition. Word recognition and word identification: prosody. Recognize sight words automatically: word identification.
