Middle School Fluency Plan

How to Score FluencyErrors include:

•Mispronunciations-pronounces word incorrectly

•Substitutions-replaces correct word with different word

•Omissions-skips a word

•Reversals-reads adjacent words in the wrong order

•Hesitations-The student pauses for longer than 3 seconds or takes longer than 3 seconds to sound out a word. In these cases, provide the word and count it as an error. Credits: Neuhaus Education Center; Practices for Developing Accuracy & Fluency, 2000, 2003 and
