Özet

In this study, it was aimed to improve the reading fluency performance of a primary school 3rd grade student who has reading difficulties. This study was carried out in the spring semester of 2021 in the form of action research, one of the qualitative research methods. First of all, in order to determine the student's current reading performance, texts at his/her own grade level were read and the student's actual reading level and reading fluency problems were determined. In order to determine the reading fluency levels of the students, the Prosodic Reading Scale was used together with the the Informal Reading Inventory. After determining the current reading performance of the student, a 7-week action plan was prepared and implemented, with two hours of lessons per week (three hours in the last week) and 15 lesson hours in total. Within the scope of the action plan, reading texts at grade levels appropriate to the current situation of the student were used. In order to improve the student's reading fluency performance, the fluent reading strategies specified in the related literature were examined and in this study, repeated reading, paired reading and word drill techniques were used. In addition, the parents of the student were interviewed at the end of the study and their opinions about their child's performance were obtained. As a result, it was seen that the strategies and techniques used had a positive effect on every component of reading fluency (accuracy, speed, prosody).
