Season 2, Episode 3: Fluency

  • Summary

  • Jan Hasbrouck believes firmly in the 5 Fs of Fluency: "FIRST and FOREMOST and FOREVER ACCURACY  is the FOUNDATION of FLUENCY" (TLC webinar, 2021). A lack of fluency can lead to a lack of motivation to read, which results in fewer words read, which results in limited comprehension. This cycle repeats until students often give up believing themselves unable to read well. 

    This episode focuses on fluency, what it is, and how to help students improve.
