Tim - I just spent a week at Columbia's Teachers College in Reading Workshop, and in my morning session we were working on strategies for, among other things, fluency. Someone working in my small group mentioned that you had a text in which you provide phrases for children to read to support increasing their fluency. Would you please identify which of your texts includes these phrases? Thank you.
