Many factors come together to create a fluent reader: prosody, automaticity, and intonation are but a few of the fluency areas covered by Dr. Marta Whittington in Motivating Adolescent Readers Using Fluency and Prosody instruction. Current research strongly links fluent reading to increased reading comprehension.
