About this title

Synopsis

Building Fluency Through Practice and Performance: American History sets the stage for teaching fluency with this collection of texts coauthored and compiled by fluency expert Dr. Timothy Rasinski. Featuring various genres of texts including poems, songs, scripts, and documents, this resource helps to develop proficient and fluent readers. Students will revisit the past through the voices of history including James W.C. Pennington, Carl Sandburg, and John F. Kennedy. As students regularly read and perform these American history related passages, they improve reading proficiency using social studies content. Background information, performance suggestions, suggestions for how to use the texts, and digital copies of the fluency texts, are included.

About Shell Education
Rachelle Cracchiolo started the company with a friend and fellow teacher. Both were eager to share their ideas and passion for education with other classroom leaders. What began as a hobby, selling lesson plans to local stores, became a part-time job after a full day of teaching, and eventually blossomed into Teacher Created Materials. The story continued in 2004 with the launch of Shell Education and the introduction of professional resources and classroom application books designed to support Teacher Created Materials curriculum resources. Today, Teacher Created Materials and Shell Education are two of the most recognized names in educational publishing around the world.
