One of the reading goals we have for students is to increase their reading speed and accuracy. Research has shown that there are different rates of reading and if you are reading too slow, it makes comprehension difficult. 
Take the reading test here to see how fast you read and find out if you need instruction in fluency.  It is a must for passing your high school equivalency test. 

CommonLit is a great site for students, teachers, and volunteers. A class can be set up to create reading assignments at just the right level for each students. Plus, you can view progress over time.

Fluency is an important piece to understanding what we read. When reading, we want to be able to do four things:

1. Read words correctly.
2. Read at a normal speed - not too fast and not too slow
3. Use expression. We want our voice to change as we read, not sound like a robot.
4. Stop at periods ( . ) and pause at commas ( , )
