Fluency expert Tim Rasinski teams up with Melissa Cheesman Smith, a veteran teacher, to help teachers effectively weave fluency work into their daily reading instruction. The book is packed with engaging text and tools, an assessment scale, and high quality ready-to-use lessons including text phrasing and tonality, echo reading, word ladders, and more! Given the importance of fluency- and its pivotal relationship to comprehension and word recognition - the potential is high for improving students' overall reading achievement, and their performance in other content areas. "I am a longstanding fan of The Megabook of Fluency. For schools looking to teach fluency rather than purely assess it, this is the must-have text." Rachel Clarke, Independent Reading Consultant
