Fluency October 21st

Chapter Four of Classrooms That Work was extremely helpful because I have never really understood what fluency means. I had a general idea, but by forcing me to decipher the paragraph at the beginning of the chapter I now under the frustration of students who struggle with fluency. Being a theatre geek, I loved the idea of choosing simple or easy plays for the students to act out such as Robin Hood, this is a great way to teach teamwork as well as mixing students with higher levels of frequency with students who are struggling. I also loved the idea of echo reading since this is a very active and hands on approach to teaching. This encourages children to explore different methods of learning while also providing them with the opportunity to hear themselves as they read and speak. However, in respect to all of the children reading one universal book that is easy, how does the teacher go about picking a book that interests instead of frustrates every child? Also, how do you make sure the book isn't so easy it bores some students into not paying attention?

Here's a fun game to play in the classroom!:
