In Reader's Workshop, we have been talking and learning a lot about fluency. We have been adding to the chart below and practicing all of the strategies during our reading time, both independently and with our reading partners. During reading conferences with students, I've noticed many students using their smooth reading voices and making their storyteller voices match the feelings in the story.
By reading aloud with your child at home, you can be a great role model for fluent reading! Also, when your child practices reading aloud the "just right" books I have been sending home each week, this too helps build their fluency, especially if they reread the book multiple times. Encourage your little reader to use all of these strategies to reinforce what we have been working on at school.
