Once students can decode text at a fluent level, they are more apt to apply metacognitive strategies in order to successfully comprehend what they are reading.
This developmental process will enable students to become more efficient readers through repeated and modeled reading strategies. Research continues to reaffirm the importance of oral reading fluency and its correlation to increased reading comprehension. However, research also states that we cannot assess early readers by fluency , speed, accuracy and prosody alone without evaluating their comprehension proficiencies , which includes both literal and inferential reasoning.
That being said, it is vital to use a sound research-based reading program and instructional methods that include all facets of reading: phonemic awareness , phonics , reading fluency, vocabulary development and reading comprehension. Utilizing these key reading components in addition to effective differentiated instruction are best practices when looking to meet the academic needs of all students. Select personalised ads.

Usually when you hear the words "fluency" or "fluent," your first thought is to think of someone who is learning a foreign language, not someone who is learning how to read. Reading fluency isn't all that different from being fluent in a foreign language.
Both rely on knowing the language well enough to comprehend and communicate without difficulty. In the case of reading fluency, it's written language. For the most part, reading fluency can be defined as the ability to read text easily, quickly and expressively without making much effort and with little difficulty comprehending the meaning of the text.
When evaluating a child's overall reading fluency, there are two different types of fluency that are typically looked at: oral reading fluency and silent reading fluency.
Much as it sounds, oral reading fluency refers to how fluently a child can read aloud. This type of fluency is less about how well a child understands and remembers what they're reading, and much more about how they decode the text.
If your child is a fluent oral reader, they should be able to read a given section of text without stumbling or hesitating, use proper intonation and expression known as prosody and pronounce most of the words correctly.
Silent reading fluency is a bit more complicated than oral reading fluency. While, again, a fluent silent reader should be able to read what is in front of them without hesitation, they should also be able to read it more than just word by word. The reader is expected to be able to read without mouthing or saying the words out loud, while visually taking in and comprehending more than one word at a time.
