The Fluent Reader, 2nd Edition

Tim Rasinski’s groundbreaking book has been updated to include

coverage of the latest research on fluency, teaching strategies

based on that research, new classroom vignettes, and suggestions

for using a variety of texts to teach fluency such as poetry, speeches,

and monologues and dialogues. You’ll also find background

information, assessment tools, step-by-step lessons, and teaching

tips-plus video clips showing the strategies in action.

If you want to ensure

that you teach reading fluency, you need to read

the work of Tim Rasinski. In a career dedicated to researching

and teaching fluency he has developed a wealth of expertise that

all teachers need to build into their practice.

As with all of Rasinski’s work, this book

is written with warmth and passion and feels like a conversation

with a wise colleague.
