Secondary Literacy: Decoding and Fluency
NO LAPTOPS NEEDED
Do Now: On your own - write down the name of your most disfluent student and what his/her reading sounds like.
(If you have not heard any of your students read aloud, jot down a few words to describe what disfluent reading sounds like.)

Session Goals
• Explain the components of reading fluently
• Describe the components of having a “deep lexical representation” of words and how to teach each component
• Incorporate strategies for promoting fluency & decoding into lesson plans

Disfluency Passage
When the reader focuses all of his/her attention on word recognition, it drains cognitive resources, and thereby leaves little room for comprehension

What is Fluency?
• Fluency is the ability to read with :- Automaticity (quickly & accurately)- Prosody (expression, phrasing, and tone)
• A necessary condition for comprehension

In LPCs this afternoon….
1. Identify where students will be reading text in an upcoming lesson.
2. Revise your lesson to include one of the four fluency instructional strategies.- Partner reading, repeated reading, choral reading- Be sure to incorporate the procedures described by
your colleagues

What does your student need?
• Think about the student whose name you wrote down on a post it at the beginning of the session. What specific words or phrases are interrupting his/her reading? Why?
![Page 12: Secondary Literacy: Decoding and Fluency NO LAPTOPS NEEDED Do Now: On your own - write down the name of your most disfluent student and what his/her reading](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f285503460f94c40d3c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Decoding
• The ability to apply knowledge of letter-sound relationships, including knowledge of letter patterns, to correctly pronounce written words.
![Page 13: Secondary Literacy: Decoding and Fluency NO LAPTOPS NEEDED Do Now: On your own - write down the name of your most disfluent student and what his/her reading](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f285503460f94c40d3c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Building Word Recognition Skills
• Students need a deep lexical representation of medium and low frequency words.
Word Parts
Meaning

Word Parts
• Point out and teach prefixes, suffixes, or root words.
geothermal
probability
genus

Pronunciation
• Break words into syllables (use a dictionary!) and have students say each syllable. Discuss any weird sound-spelling patterns.
im•pa•tient
prob•a•bil•i•ty
gen•us
![Page 16: Secondary Literacy: Decoding and Fluency NO LAPTOPS NEEDED Do Now: On your own - write down the name of your most disfluent student and what his/her reading](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070403/56649f285503460f94c40d3c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Meaning
• Use methods to teach new vocabulary: give student friendly definition, give examples & non-examples, have students interact with the words.
impatient
probability
genus

In LPCs this afternoon…
1. Identify 1-2 medium frequency words that might be difficult for students to decode.
2. Revise your lesson plan to include how you will teach students the word parts, pronunciation, and meaning of the word. Insert a table like this:
3 minutes

Closing
By strengthening your students’ fluency & decoding abilities, you pave the way for
them to become powerful readers, writers, and thinkers!
