Reading fluency is one of the most important - and most misunderstood - components of reading development 😀 ⁠ ⁠ It's not about reading fast. True fluency is the ability to read accurately, at a reasonable pace, and with expression. It's what happens when decoding becomes automatic enough that the brain can focus on meaning instead of mechanics 📚️⁠ ⁠ Without fluency, even children who can technically decode every word on a page can struggle to understand what they've read. The cognitive effort of sounding out each word leaves too little room for comprehension. ⁠ ⁠ How to build fluency: repeated reading of familiar texts, echo reading (you model, they repeat), and paired reading aloud together. ⁠ ⁠ Save this as a reference ✨️⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #ReadingEggs #ReadingFluency #ScienceofReading⁠ ⁠
