Rubric for Oral Reading Fluency
Description of Oral Reading Fluency
Reads primarily in large, meaningful phrase groups. Although some

regressions, repetitions, and deviations from text may be present, these
do not appear to detract from the overall structure of the story.
Preservation of the authors syntax is consistent. Some or most of the
story is read with expressive interpretation.
Reads primarily in three- or four-word phrase groups. Some smaller

groupings may be present. However, the majority of phrasing seems
appropriate and preserves the syntax of the author. Little or no
expressive interpretation is present.
Reads primarily in two-word phrases with some three- or four-word

groupings. Some word-by-word reading may be present. Word
groupings may seem awkward and unrelated to the larger context of
the sentence or passage.
Reads primarily word by word. Occasional two-word or three-word

phrases may occur, but these are infrequent and/or they do not
preserve meaningful syntax.
