Abstract: This study examined the effects of repeated reading practice on oral reading fluency and comprehension skills of elementary-aged students. Eight fifth-grade students, determined to be reading below grade level, and recognized by the classroom teacher as needing additional reading instruction participated in the study. A multiple baseline across subjects experimental design was used, with an initial baseline period of ten sessions. Participants entered the intervention in pairs according to similar reading levels. During each repeated reading session student pairs orally read, alternating paragraphs, to one another for a practice period of ten minutes. Students used a specified correction procedure when miscues occurred during the practice period. Following practice, each student participated in a one-minute timed trial, which was scored by the researcher for number of words read per minute and number of miscues committed by the reader. A cloze procedure comprehension assessment was done when the student reached the fluency criterion (one hundred eighty words read per minute). The dependent variables in this study were number of words read in one minute, number of miscues committed, and number of comprehension questions answered correctly. Results indicate that students' oral reading fluency improved with practice, miscues decreased with practice, and comprehension skills significantly improved overall. No word recognition skill gains were observed.

Abstract: This study compared the effects of sustained silent readings and repeated readings on oral reading fluency and comprehension of at-risk students from a 2nd grade class in an urban school with low performance on WJ-III subtests and DIBELS fall benchmark assessments. A multiple baseline across subjects experimental design was used. Intervention was conducted over a 4-16 week period consisting of Repeated Reading. Variables measured were reading fluency: number of correct words read per minute and reading comprehension: number of comprehension items answered correctly. During baseline condition (sustained silent reading) students read grade level passages independently and silently for 10 minutes. They were tested in fluency and comprehension during one minute timings. During the interventions condition (paired repeated reading) students worked in pairs, taking turns reading the passage orally for 10 minutes. They were also tested in fluency and comprehension during one minute timings. The dependent variables in this study were number of words read per minute and the number of comprehension questions answered correctly. Results indicate that students' oral reading fluency and comprehension skills stayed consistent with sustained silent readings, but improved with repeated readings.

Abstract: This study used a multiple baseline across students design to examine the effects on fluency rate and comprehension of six African American adolescent males. The participants were between the ages of 12 and 15 years, referred by their teacher/administrator as being "at risk" for reading problems. The repeated readings intervention involved vocabulary instruction, model reading, systematic error correction, and performance feedback. Culturally/gender relevant materials were used in the intervention. Results from this study support the effectiveness of repeated readings to increase the reading fluency for all six participants, however, a functional relationship between the intervention and the improvement in the students' ORF scores was only supported by five of the six participants. There were no substantial improvements in the comprehension skills of the participants.

Reading fluency has been identified as a key component of proficient reading. Research has consistently demonstrated significant and substantial correlations between reading fluency and overall reading achievement. Despite the great potential for fluency to have a significant outcome on students’ reading achievement, it continues to be not well understood by teachers, school administrators and policy makers. The chapters in this volume examine reading fluency from a variety of perspectives. The initial chapter sketches the history of fluency as a literacy instruction component. Following chapters examine recent studies and approaches to reading fluency, followed by chapters that explore actual fluency instruction models and the impact of fluency instruction. Assessment of reading fluency is critical for monitoring progress and identifying students in need of intervention. Two articles on assessment, one focused on word recognition and the other on prosody, expand our understanding of fluency measurement. Finally, a study from Turkey explores the relationship of various reading competencies, including fluency, in an integrated model of reading. Our hope for this volume is that it may spark a renewed interest in research into reading fluency and fluency instruction and move toward making fluency instruction an even more integral part of all literacy instruction.

"Repeated reading is a popular instructional strategy designed to improve reading fluency and comprehension. This thesis examines the empirical evidence of the effectiveness of repeated reading with elementary age students with learning disabilities (LD) who fail to progress beyond the decoding stage of reading development. Literature reviewed includes current applications of repeated reading, such as assisted and unassisted repeated reading, repeated reading with peer tutors, in readers' theatre, in Read Naturally, as well as repeated reading in combination with other best practices in literacy instruction. Overall findings indicate that repeated reading does improve reading fluency and comprehension for many elementary-age students with learning disabilities. Limitations of the research, suggestions for future research, and practical application of repeated reading in the classroom are presented."--leaf 4.

Repeated reading is a well-established intervention. The focus questions in this article include: Does repeated reading increase fluency and comprehension in elementary students with learning disabilities? What instructional practices work best for repeated reading? What is the most motivational way to practice repeated reading with students? This article review and proposed study show evidence that repeated reading is an effective intervention for elementary students with a variety of disabilities. Disabilities looked in this article include: Learning disability, emotional and behavioral disability, Orthopedic Impairment; specifically cerebral palsy, and deafness. Fluency on repeated passages showed the most increase from this intervention, while fluency on novel passages also increased. Most studies showed modest gains in comprehension in both reread and novel passages.

Repeated readings has been shown to be effective with monolingual students to improve both reading fluency and comprehension (Chard, Vaughn, & Tyler, 2002; O'Shea, Sindelar, & O'Shea, 1985; Vadasy & Sanders, 2008; Wang & Algozzine, 2008); however, evidence for the effectiveness of this technique is more scarce with English Language Learners (ELLs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a basic repeated readings intervention with ELLs for strengthening their reading fluency and comprehension. Three elementary students from a school in northern Oklahoma participated in the intervention for approximately 15 minutes each school day for approximately 6 weeks. DIBELS passages were used to assess reading fluency. AimsWeb Maze passages were administered during three baseline sessions and three return-to-baseline sessions to measure comprehension. Treatment integrity and inter-rater agreement were also assessed. Change in the trend, level, and variability in the participant's performance during the intervention were evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the intervention. The students did not respond to the repeated readings intervention in reading fluency or reading comprehension. Changes were made to the intervention, such as by adding error correction, modeling, or goal setting; however no significant impact occurred. Directions for future research with ELL students include comparing the effects of a repeated readings intervention alone with a repeated readings intervention that includes other components such as error correction, modeling, or goal setting. Another important aspect for future research is to understand how students' age and amount of exposure to English impact the effect of reading interventions such as repeated readings.
