Teaching reading fluency for teaching assistants

‘So it is with children who learn to read fluently and well: They begin to take flight into whole new worlds as effortlessly as young birds take to the sky.’ - William James. 

During the session we will engage with lesson resources to: 

  • understand the crucial role fluency plays in the reading journey, with a close focus on the impact of phrase marking
  • successfully deliver reading fluency sessions to small intervention groups;
  • become more confident to support in the classroom 

Suitable for teaching assistants, particularly those working in primary schools. 

(This session will be recorded and available for 14 days. If you are unable to attend, register and receive the recording link. This will be sent after the webinar.)
