Reading for Meaning: May Edition

August 2, 2020 by Leave a Comment

$5.00

Thank you so much for stopping by my store! 🙂
 
If you are a fan of my fluency for kinders, firsties, or seconds, you will love this new series of fluencies!
Category: Fluency
  • Description

Description

I have been using this with some of my readers with great success! I needed to offer some more support to students who are reading, but not with great depth of comprehension. This has helped them to gain confidence and to read for the purpose of gaining information. The passages included here are for the beginning of first grade, but they include text coding and written response. These are wonderful for small group work, or for homework with support!

**SAMPLE ALERT**
Please take a moment to download the preview. There’s a list of the topics and levels included for the month of January. I’ve included a free passage for you in the sample download! 🙂
 
Each pack will feature ten leveled passages. The first version has numbers if you’re using it for tracking purposes. The second copy does not have the numbers. Each page features text coding with crayons and a written response question. The levels of each passage are printed on each page.
 
 
LOOKING FOR OTHER TYPES OF FLUENCY?
I have a great set for first grade that is differentiated!
The first grade fluency bundle is divided by months. There’s an August to November set, a December to March set, and an April to June set. I added a second volume to the December to March called Volume 2 to add lower passages for emergent readers.
