SSR Students Read and Teacher Confers with Students

Teacher discusses the book with a student while other students read. This is a conversation with the student, not an interrogation.

Students sometimes read one page to the teacher. Most teachers do not have their students read more than 100 words to figure out if the child is reading fluently. If this works for a running record, it works for a fluency reading too.

Students read in the classroom.

Students read at home.

Students have a collection of books so all the reading time is spent reading instead of searching for a book during reading time.
