Elevating Fluency

Elevate early literacy skills with Book 1 Short Vowels. There are 3 differentiated lessons for each of the following skills:

* Short a CVC
* Short e CVC
* Short i CVC
* Short o CVC
* Short u CVC
* Mixed Short Vowels Review

Every component of the lesson is aligned with the Science of Reading. This program is closely aligned with the phonics progression of most structured literacy programs. Elevating Fluency was written and created by a reading interventionist and literacy coach.

Engaging differentiated passages are provided for fluency instruction and practice. The three reading passage options for each skill are approximately 25 words, 50 words, and 70+ words in length. Students are given multiple opportunities to read and write words with the targeted decoding skill while connecting them to meaningful text. Each lesson includes activating prior knowledge, vocabulary review, phonemic awareness with the target skill, word-level fluency practice, connected text practice, comprehension questions, phoneme-grapheme mapping of the targeted skill, and dictation. Students graph their progress, increasing motivation, and providing immediate feedback on their success.

This program can be used as an intervention, prevention, and extension for students in kindergarten and above. The lessons are complete and ready to go, making them perfect for classroom teachers, paraprofessionals, tutors, or homeschool teachers. Every aspect of the lesson is aligned with the science of reading and incorporates multiple strategies recommended by the International Dyslexia Association (IDA) for students with reading difficulties, including those with dyslexia.
