Creating Fluency Videos in my 6th grade Reading Group
I have a small group of 6th graders whom I work with to improve their reading fluency. Reading a text repeatedly is popular method for increasing reading fluency. This along with the reading and memorization of high-frequency words and commonly misspelled and misused words have been the methods used in my class. In order to complete my project, my task was to try to incorporate an element of technology and 21st Century Literacies into my class room. Adapting this method of reading fluency work for 21st Century Literacies included:
 * adding an element of collaboration and self-assessment
 * integrating technology into the process
 * providing a feedback loop for students to make adjustments and improve their reading of a selected text

The method of technology that we used was iMovie in order to create a video of all of the students reading their individually selected texts.
