Differentiated Fluency for Firsties

December 31, 2013 by Tamara

***I’ve added this post to a linky on Building Fluency…if you’d like to check out other ideas on fluency…please check out the linky at Growing Firsties!  Really great stuff there, friends! Just click on the Growing Firsties link to go straight to the post.***

 

So here we go! 🙂

 
 
I am so excited to share this pack with you all! 🙂
I created this as a resource to support the fluency goals I’ve set for my kiddos in class, but also to give my parents something tangible to work on with their learners at home…that is on their level.
The parent component of this pack is really important.
You’ll be depending on them to work with your student on this nightly!
 
 
For this pack, I’ve included four months of themed fluencies.
 
This pack is unique in that it blends both fluency and comprehension.
There are scaffolded questions on each sheet that require the students to respond with full answers rather than just a yes or a no.
 
Something else that is unique to this pack is that it’s LEXILED!
Although there are tons of fluency resources out there…both free and paid, I haven’t found one that was lexiled and leveled!  I’ve provided the correlations for AR, DRA, and Fountas & Pinnell!
You will be able to ACCURATELY use this tool to progress monitor your students!
I’ve varied the topics, and also balanced both literary and informational texts within the bundle.
 
The first sheet is a preview of the LOW text on ‘Snow’.
 

 

This next text is the preview from the MID LEVEL version of the ‘Snow’ text.
 
This last page is a preview of the HIGH Leveled Text for the ‘Snow’ passage.
 
A lot of love went into this pack for my own students!
My scores on the most recent diagnostic scores were really fantastic, and I think that this type of instruction is a big part of the reason my students are experiencing so much success! 🙂
If you would like to pick up this pack for your readers this winter, please click HERE to be directed to my TPT store! 🙂
I have three other similar packs just like this for other parts of the year!

 

Differentiated Fluency for Firsties {August - November}
This is the first installment of my fluency! 🙂  It’s got lots of fall themed content specific passages that are appropriate for emergent readers in first! 🙂  Click HERE to be directed to this passage.
Differentiated Fluency For Firsties 2nd Edition {December
This edition features lower passages for first grade students!  This would be a wonderful tool for remedial readers in first during the winter!  Click HERE to go to this product.
Differentiated Fluency for Firsties {April - June}
This is my end of the year edition of passages!  Click HERE to be directed to this product.

I bundled all of these resources at a reduced price.  They can be found in my store as well! 🙂

I hope you’ll try them out with your learners this year!
