dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to determine the effect of an additional fluency intervention on first graders’ reading fluency. Fluency Folders, Reader’s Theater and Ticket-to-Read were used in order to improve their fluency. The Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark Reading Assessment System was used to identify the instructional reading level of the students. The measurement tool used each week was a fluency passage based on the student’s instructional reading level. The study involved the use of a posttest design to measure the data collected from the weekly readings including Words Correct Per Minute (WCPM), accuracy, and overall fluency score. Findings from the intervention indicated an overall increase in reading fluency scores for students who were initially below grade level or near grade level.en_US
