Partner Poems for Building Fluency: 25 Original Poems With Research-Based Lessons That Help Students Improve Their Fluency and Comprehension

by Bobbi Katz

Research shows that partner reading is an effective tool in building reading fluency. The whimsical reproducible poems in this collection were written especially for two students to take turns reading aloud. This experience strengthens both reading and listening skills as students are encouraged to give each other supportive feedback. Accompanying lessons, with think-aloud scripts, offer explicit instruction to help develop fluency. For use with Grades 2–4.
