Developed by a Specialist Dyslexia & Literacy Teacher (AMBDA), this comprehensive intervention pack is designed for KS2 pupils who can decode but struggle with reading fluency, phrasing, and expression. If you have pupils who read “word-by-word” or lose the meaning of a text, Fluent Foundations is the solution. What is the 4-Step Fluency Routine? Every animal session follows a consistent, research-based structure: Step 1: Decode It – Breaking down multi-syllabic words into manageable parts. Step 2: Phrase It – Using visual cues to help pupils “chunk” text into meaningful phrases. Step 3: Improve It – Oral rehearsal and vocabulary work to build linguistic flexibility. Step 4: Build It – Sentence construction to reinforce syntactic understanding. What’s Included in this Pack: 8 Structured Animal Sessions: Featuring high-interest creatures like the Axolotl, Capybara, Vampire Bat, and more. Assessment Tools: Pre- and Post-intervention fluency checks (WPM count or fluency rating scale) to track and evidence progress. No-Prep Games: Short, engaging activities like “Syllable Ping-Pong” and “Phrase Pass” to build repetition without boredom. Fluency Practice Grids: Targeted syllable and word-recognition drills. Certificate of Achievement: To celebrate student success at the end of the program. Why Choose This Resource? “Print and Go”: Designed for busy Teachers and TAs. No extra planning or preparation is required. HI-LO Appeal: High-interest content for older pupils with lower reading ages, ensuring they stay engaged and motivated.
