Read Naturally

My first fluency intervention of the year is always Read Naturally. RN is a differentiated instructional program where the student work on repeated readings and teacher modeling to help to improve their fluency, comprehension and some phonics skills.
I personally like the non-fiction stories the RN offers because it provides a good opportunity for a quick mini-lesson. A 4th grade student just came in today and said they were starting a new story in their Reading Street (core curriculum) on Amelia Earhart and he remembers reading about her in RN, 2.0. So I feel it provides the students with good background knowledge.
