Episode 227In this episode, Jan Hasbrouck discusses the critical components of reading fluency, focusing on automaticity and its measurement through words correct per minute (WCPM). The discussion highlights the relationship between fluency and comprehension, the role of oral reading fluency in assessing student progress, and the importance of frequent assessments in the classroom. Jan also reflects on recent research findings from NAEP scores that challenge previous assumptions about fluency and automaticity, emphasizing the need for educators to adapt their understanding and practices based on evolving research.  The discussion also touches on the debate between repeated reading and wide reading, advocating for an approach to reading instruction that incorporates both methods. Hasbrouck encourages educators to embrace continuous learning and adapt their teaching strategies based on evolving research.Resources <ul><li><a href='https://www.readingrockets.org/topics/fluency/articles/fluency-norms-chart-2017-update'>Hasbrouck Tindal 2017 ORF Norms Chart</a></li><li><a href='https://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/subject/studies/orf/2021025_orf_study.pdf'>2018 NAEP Oral Reading Fluency Study</a> by White, S., et. al. </li><li><a href='https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1EmxeSc8Rcpjkb5J9GovoA'>Listen to more Melissa & Lori podcast episodes on Fluency</a>! </li></ul> We answer your questions about teaching reading in <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Literacy-50-Handbook-Teachers-Real-World/dp/1546121862'>The Literacy 50-A Q&A Handbook for Teachers: Real-World Answers to Questions About Reading That Keep You Up at Night</a>.
