Today's Episode
Repeated reading doesn't work for all students because fluency issues have different root causes. Understanding four reading profiles helps target the right intervention:
Speedy & accurate
Slow & accurate
Fast & inaccurate
Slow & inaccurate
Critical principle: First comes accuracy, then comes speed.
Why repeated reading fails: If students lack foundational phonics knowledge (can't automatically decode 60-70 graphemes), no amount of text-level practice will improve fluency.
