- Fluency is reading with expression, appropriate phrasing, and

reading automatically (little to no trouble with vocabulary).

Here are some activities you can do at home with your child to
help with Fluency:

program with the closed captions showing so your child can practice
reading fluently in natural language.
• Fluency Cards- At home on index cards, paper, or dry erase boards.
Write down letters, words, or phrases with different types of
punctuation. For example, “What’s for dinner?” or, “I knew that!”
