The Common Core Language Arts Standards for Reading: Foundational Skills K-5 require that students read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support comprehension.  Students in Grade 6-12 must possess appropriate fluency skills in order to read and comprehend history/social studies, science and technical material required of them in the Secondary Common Core Literacy Standards.  This presentation highlights the strong correlation between reading fluency and reading comprehension. Participants will learn to implement a daily six-minute model to increase fluency in all students. They will also be introduced to a novel partner routine that can be used as an effective alternative to silent, sustained reading.
