Above you will find a "Voice Thread" of fluency phrases. My voice is what you hear, but parents and children can add their voices as well for each phrase. The goal of fluency phrases is to use sight words in a more practical manner rather than one word at a time. Good readers group words together as they read. (I call it "chunking" in my classroom.) Repeated readings will improve a child's fluency, so feel free to add your child's voice more than once!
Recording your voice is simple. First, you'll need to create an account on "Voice Thread." That's probably the hardest part! Then you can add your voice (or your child's voice) to each slide of the presentation. The challenge I present to my students is to see who can make their voices sound like true "talking" and not robot reading. They enjoy hearing their voices and are amazingly quiet while others are recording. Have fun!
