Story Elements Task Cards for Reading Comprehension
It can be an absolute struggle to get students to build strong reading comprehension skills. Worksheets have a place in reading comprehension, but are not always the most engaging resources.
Fluency task cards are without a doubt, a valuable resource for reading comprehension and can help students develop confidence and fluency as readers.
Story Elements Task Cards for Reading Comprehension
So what exactly are fluency task cards? They are cards that contain short fiction or non fiction passages created to improve students’ reading fluency.
Fluency task cards can be used individually, with a partner or in literacy centers. Before students use fluency task cards, demonstrate what fluent reading is – what is sounds like and looks like.
Creating fluency task cards is a simple yet effective way of fostering not only oral fluency, but also reading comprehension.
