Think reading is just the English teacher's job? Think again! This blog post from TeachersFirst's Infusing Technology Blog urges all secondary educators to embrace the Science of Reading, especially the often-overlooked skill of fluency. Many students in middle and high school silently struggle with comprehension because their reading fluency hasn't been nurtured. The post offers practical ways to integrate fluency checks into any subject, such as one-minute oral readings or short recorded assignments. These simple strategies can help teachers across disciplines support literacy and unlock deeper learning for all students.
tag(s): fluency (33), reading comprehension (145), blogs (80), science of reading (37)
In the Classroom
Read this post and then put the ideas into action! Have students take turns reading a short passage (related to your content area) aloud for one minute. Pair them with a peer to time, track errors, and provide supportive feedback. Rotate passages weekly to build confidence, fluency, and content knowledge. After fluency practice, have students reflect in journals about what they read--summarizing key points, identifying challenging words, and noting how fluency affected their understanding. Consider writing the journals digitally using a resource like Book Creator reviewed here or Google Slides reviewed here. Ask students to record themselves reading passages from your subject (e.g., a science explanation, a history speech, or a math word problem) using tools like Vocaroo reviewed here. Have them submit recordings monthly to show progress. Include self-assessment rubrics to promote ownership of growth.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The DART (Developmental Activities for Repeated Practice) Lessons from TCALL (Texas Center for the Advancement of Literacy & Learning) is an ESL curriculum designed to help adult learners develop essential English language and digital literacy skills. The lessons provide step-by-step guidance on fundamental computer tasks, such as recognizing and typing letters, numbers, and symbols, turning on and shutting down a computer, and connecting to a wireless network. Learners also practice navigating applications, performing internet searches, managing browser functions, and using digital security measures like avoiding suspicious links and ads. Additionally, the curriculum includes lessons on creating and securing a Gmail account, logging in and out, and recognizing phishing attempts. These structured activities support ESL/multilingual learners in building confidence and independence in using technology for communication, work, and daily life.
tag(s): STEM (387), digital literacy (42)
In the Classroom
Provide learners with a list of letters, numbers, and symbols to find and type on a computer or smartphone keyboard. Use a timed challenge to make it interactive and reinforce familiarity with typing. Create real-life scenarios where students must identify potential phishing emails, suspicious links, or online scams. Students can create a Gmail account, practice logging in and out, and send a properly formatted email to the teacher or a classmate. They must include a subject line, greeting, body text, and closing, reinforcing both digital and written communication skills.
This resource requires PDF reader software like Adobe Acrobat.

Have students write a poem inspired by art. They should focus on conveying emotions, themes, or stories suggested by the artwork. Ask students to create a fictional story based on art, incorporating dialogue and detailed descriptions. They can write the narrative from different perspectives (ex., the artist or a character in the artwork) and use more complex sentence structures, such as conditional or subjunctive forms. Present students with a piece of art and have them write a short critique, focusing on the emotional impact, techniques used, and symbolic elements.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
