tools for practicing, assessing, and measuring fluency and supports the research-proven<br />
methodology that guided, supported, repeated reading improves oral reading �uency.<br />

Develop and Assess Oral Reading <strong>Fluency</strong><br />
<strong>Fluency</strong> <strong>Tutor</strong> provides both the student and teacher an easy,<br />
consistent, and convenient way to develop oral �uency<br />
skills. Students can log in from school or from home to<br />
independently practice reading and record assessments. Teachers<br />
can listen to students' recorded passages and mark them when<br />
time allows. <strong>Fluency</strong> <strong>Tutor</strong> allows teachers and students to focus<br />
their time during the school day on instruction rather than on<br />
repeated reading practice or 1:1 paper and pencil assessment.<br />
Using the data from <strong>Fluency</strong> <strong>Tutor</strong>’s powerful<br />
graphical reports, teachers can personalize<br />
instruction to meet individual student‘s needs<br />
and students can see where they need to focus<br />
in order to improve their oral reading �uency<br />
skills. <strong>Fluency</strong> <strong>Tutor</strong> helps solve the dilemma of<br />
how to provide adequate time for reading<br />
instruction with ever-increasing class sizes and<br />
demands upon educators’ time.<br />
<strong>Fluency</strong> <strong>Tutor</strong> can be used with all students, but is especially helpful to struggling<br />
readers, students with learning disabilities, and English Language Learners.<br />
"We used <strong>Fluency</strong> <strong>Tutor</strong> during our summer session. Both teachers and students were up and running<br />
with very little training. Students were able to practice their reading and see and hear their mistakes with<br />
no other instruction from the teacher over the summer. Their use of the product was definitely beneficial<br />
in preventing regression of reading skills that typically occurs over the summer months."<br />
