Timothy Rasinski's Support Materials
Excerpt from Tim Rasinski's Whitepaper
Modeling fluent reading, assisted reading, wide reading, and deep (repeated) reading are the building blocks to fluency. Individually these instructional elements have the potential to improve reading. When combined in an integrated manner into a program that combines these elements the potential impact on fluency and overall reading proficiency is even greater. A synergistic effect is created in which the effect of the combined instructional approach is greater than the sum of the individual elements themselves. In their review of integrated reading fluency instruction, Rasinski, Reutzel, Chard, & Linan-Thompson (2011) found that such approaches consistently resulted in reading improvements in word identification, reading fluency, and reading comprehension.
