What is Reading Fluency?
Reading fluency is when we read smoothly. We are reading without breaks and attempting to read like we speak.
Students who are reading fluently are reading accurately and with expression.
The hope is that children reading smoothly also helps with comprehension.
Working on fluency with familiar words can help children build their confidence while reading. They will be able to see what fluency sounds like and have a goal that they can visualize.
I have two previous fluency sets found here: CVC Fluency Sentences and CVCe Fluency Sentences.
What are Consonant Blends?
CVCe words are words that contain a consonant, vowel, another consonant and end with a silent e. The magic e at the end makes the other vowel say its name.
If you are beginning with phonics expression, CVCe words are a good place to start.
I have focused on l blends, r blends and s blends for these sentences. You will find words beginning with the blends bl, cl, fl, gl, pl, sl, br, cr, dr, fr, gr, pr, tr, sc, sk, sm, sn, sp, st and sw.
These CVCe Fluency Sentence Resources
This collection of resources contains three different activities.
First, you will find checklists that each contain six sentences. There is an emphasis on words beginning with consonant blends. Other common words have been included to help create the sentences.
These sentences are slightly more challenging than our previous fluency sentences.
Students can read each sentence. They will check the box once they are able to read fluently.
There are pages for students to show they are able to comprehend what they read. Students can read each sentence and then draw a picture to show the meaning of each.
Finally, you will find Fry fluency cards. These are provided with a colorful background and in black and white. You can print and cut apart the cards. In addition, you can choose to laminate for durability.
You can hole punch and place the cards on a ring. Students can flip through the cards to practice each of the 30 sentences.
