2/2 FLUENCY FRIDAY Find other songbooks and free resources at my website -- https://t.co/ueo0zaMC2U Rehearsing & performing poetry and song is an excellent (and artful) way to build reading fluency (SOR) β automatic and accurate word recognition, and prosody (expressiveness).

OUTSTANDING!
My 5th grade class will read about 10 novels as a class this year. We will also read many texts in science and social studies (Core Knowledge) which aren't short passages. This is how my Ss did on the 5th grade ELA compared to every district in my county. I despise test prep.

The mistake so many schools have made os thinking that the best way to help students do well on standardized tests is to make instruction look like the test, using short passages and test-type questions. It's not. A kid who can read a novel can pass a standardized test.

The best thing about being a teacher is that it matters. The hardest thing about being a teacher is that it matters everyday. #education #teachers
