Reading fluency is based on several factors, including timely word recognition. The gap caused by a child not being able to memorize and recall words created a pause in their reading and that hesitation reduces the child’s ability and motivation to remain on task and read with accuracy. By measuring a child’s accuracy for reading words, a parent can better understand where problems exist and make a routine of helping the child learn words and letter clusters that enable them to read with greater ease. Successfully keeping with a schedule of seasonal goals, a child can improve over time within months to reduce the number of errors in their reading and vocabulary.
This article contains helpful advice regarding a child’s ability.
Methods for measuring a child’s reading accuracy can be done by counting errors within a text, such as a book. By using the Five Finger Rule, you can give the child five tries to correctly sound out or recall a word they stubble on before the end of the text. Success is then measured by completing the text without exhausting all five attempts. Repeatedly practicing a child’s reading using the same book can help with memorization. Sight words are important words that should be recalled quickly by a child, and reading material with common sight words help a child find context and direction when reading sentences. It is also beneficial to review the material being read with the child, to help them understand what is going on and feel confident about repeating the act of reading aloud at school or in public.
