The Six-Minute Solution: A Reading Fluency Program is a fast, fun, research-based way to increase fluency. In same-level pairs, students do repeated readings of oneminute nonfiction passages as their partners note the number of words read correctly - an effective peer-monitoring and feedback system that keeps students motivated and on task. The Six-Minute Solution builds students' reading fluency - essential for text comprehension—and is a valuable complement to any reading curriculum or as an intervention program.
The program is now available at Primary, Intermediate, and Secondary levels. All levels of this popular and effective program include assessment tools, reproducible charts, high-frequency word lists, and 25 passages at each grade level. Each level contains passages for students who read at, above, and below grade level, making it easy to differentiate instruction.
*Primary Level is for kindergarten through second grade students. Includes passages at kindergarten through third grade reading levels. As an added bonus, the Primary book covers common phonic elements that are necessary for teaching young students to read.
*Intermediate Level is for third through sixth grade students. Includes passages at first through sixth grade reading levels.
