Description
Children navigating the Kids on the Yard curriculum exhibit elevated levels of curiosity, often engaging with learning materials without prompt or prodding. There is a perceptible increase in their intrinsic motivation to learn, and their eyes light up with anticipation when presented with a new book. They tend to explore and experiment with reading in unpredictable and exciting ways – pointing out words on signboards, enthusiastically reading aloud from their favorite books, or penning down their thoughts.
In recent years, educators and researchers have sought methods to improve reading fluency, given its crucial contribution to the learning process. The PDF developed by the Consortium on Reading Excellence (CORE) working with the United States Department of Education, indicates that students with good reading fluency are often better at understanding the text they read.
