The present investigation examined the effects of an intervention package including repeated reading and the word drill method of error correction on the oral reading fluency of at-risk readers. The study attempted to determine whether the intervention package produced greater gains in reading fluency than repeated reading alone. A secondary purpose of the study was to examine the retention of gains made in fluency on untrained passages. Finally, the study examined the acceptability of each intervention.

This user-friendly guide has been thoroughly revised to reflect significant changes in the way schools deliver reading instruction and intervention, especially for students at risk for reading failure. Step-by-step strategies target key areas of literacy development: phonological awareness, fluency, and comprehension. Particular emphasis is placed on scientifically based practices that do not require major curricular change and can be applied with students of varying ages and ability levels. In a large-size format with lay-flat binding for ease of photocopying, the book includes 17 reproducible assessment and instructional tools. Purchasers also get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials. This book is in The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series, edited by T. Chris Riley-Tillman. New to This Edition: *Chapter on multi-tiered intervention delivery, plus additional discussion in other relevant chapters. *Chapter on interventions for English learners (ELs). *Chapter on vocabulary instruction, intervention, and assessment. *Additional graphing and data-analysis tools. *Coverage of new resources available through federal supports.

Results indicate that after 7-13 weeks the packaged intervention was effective on increasing the oral reading fluency and comprehension of practiced culturally relevant passages for all participants. The intervention was also effective on increasing the oral reading fluency and comprehension on six of the participants on novel AIMSweb passages. These findings extend the research base supporting the use of repeated readings for second-grade students via computer-assisted instruction to supplement instruction. Further, the findings suggest that skill acquisition and generalization might be promoted by the use of culturally relevant materials. Limitations, directions for future research, and implications for practice are offered.

"In 1997, Congress asked the Director of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), in consultation with the Secretary of Education, to convene a national panel to assess the status of research-based knowledge, including the effectiveness of various approaches to teaching children to read. The panel was charged with providing a report that should present the panel's conclusions, an indication of the readiness for application in the classroom of the results of this research, and, if appropriate, a strategy for rapidly disseminating this information to facilitate effective reading instruction in the schools" -- p. 1-1.

Research suggests that re-reading the same text and repeated exposure to unknown words in the same context maximizes the likelihood that previously unknown words will be learned. Repeated reading is recommended as one of the most effective instruction method for improving reading concerns with non-fluent readers. As to whether repetition is necessary for improving reading fluency remains a critical question. This study compared repeated reading to a non-repetitive reading strategy with second grade non-fluent readers. Effects of the two reading methods were compared in terms of oral reading fluency gains and word mastery. This study found that there were no significant differences in reading fluency and word mastery between repeated reading and the non-repetitive method on generalization measures. Both interventions were found to be effective methods of instruction. Implications for practice and future research have been discussed.
