Educational Psychology RAAC reading fluency reading comprehension question generation repeated readings school psychology Identifying effective intervention strategies for improving reading comprehension skills is a critical task for modern educational professionals. Research has pointed many efforts firmly toward development of early reading skills. The current study focused on the strong but sometimes idiosyncratic link between reading fluency and comprehension of text. Eight elementary school students were identified as having deficits in oral reading fluency skills. The effects of a paired intervention strategy combining reading fluency skill improvement with comprehension strategy instruction were examined over the course of several weeks of treatment. Progress was monitored using both oral reading fluency probes and a questioning assessment designed to measure comprehension skills. Results help to demonstrate the linear relationship between oral reading fluency and comprehension as well as illuminate the variance in degree and nature of effect between individuals. Strengths and limitations of the study as well as ideas for future research are discussed. 2009-05-08 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1241734871 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1241734871 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
