What is repeated readings?
• Repeated Readings – Repeated Readings is an instructional
strategy used to support students in developing oral reading proficiency. Students are given multiple opportunities to practice reading aloud passages at their independent reading level, instructors provide instructive feedback after each practice opportunity (Therrien & Kubina, 2006).
Why is repeated readings effective?
• Repeated Readings is grounded in the theory of automaticity. The theory posits that once readers have established fluency with text at their instructional reading level, they are able to focus on comprehension (Escarpio & Barbetta, 2015; Samuels, 1979).
What does the supporting research for repeated readings say?
• Improved oral reading rates for elementary and middle school students (Lo, Cooke, & Starling, 2011; Oakes, Lane, & Mathur, 2010; Scott & Shearer-Lingo, 2002)
• Enhanced reading comprehension (WWC, 2014)
• Increased correct words per min read and comprehension questions answered, and generalized to novel passages for elementary students at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD; Staubitz, Cartledge, Yurick, & Lo, 2005)
• Improved oral reading fluency, improved comprehension, and reduced reading errors for students with EBD (Escarpio & Barbetta, 2015)
Supporting Research
See Repeated Readings Resource Guide on Ci3T.org for supporting research and
additional information.
What are the benefits & challenges?
Benefits• Cost-free • Implemented with few
materials and tutors can be easily trained
• Provides opportunities for individualized support through the use of instructive feedback
• Students can set goals, and graph their own progress
Challenges• Students may lose
interest in the passage (goal setting and graphing progress supports motivation)
• Time for a qualified tutor to work with individual students.
How do I implement repeated readings in my classroom? Implementation Checklist
!
Determine students are at the appropriate level for this intervention (see Intervention Grid).
Choose a format for implementing the intervention (e.g., small group; one-on-one with teacher,
paraprofessional or peer).
Select reading passages at the independent level and collect any additional supplies (e.g., data
collection sheets, timer).
Begin implementing intervention by pairing students with a qualified partner (i.e., one who can
give appropriate instructive feedback).

How do I implement repeated readings in my classroom? Implementation Checklist
Set performance criterion.
Student reads the passage aloud and partner provides instructive feedback (e.g., decoding. prosody, and rate).
Graph progress.
Praise students’ efforts.

Repeated Readings
Students engage in repeated oral reading practice (15 min, four days per week; in addition to 90 min core instruction) of appropriate text passages to build reading fluency, accuracy, and prosody. Selected passages at the student’s independent reading level (at least 95% accuracy). Students are paired with a competent partner (e.g., teacher, paraprofessional, volunteer or peer). The student reads the passage, timing the reading for one min. Then the partner marks errors, insertions, and omissions on a second copy of the passage. The partner listens and provides instructive feedback. Instructive feedback is pertaining to correct decoding, words omitted during the read aloud, prosody, and words read correctly per minute. Students continue the repeated readings until a fluency goal, such as a target number of words read correctly per minute is reached or until an authentic end to the activity (e.g., presentation of Readers Theatre). Materials: Two copies of the passage (one for the student
reading and another for their tutor) Graph- words read correctly per minute
