VOCAROO and FLUENCY


Vocaroo- Free Voice Recording



(You do need a microphone, but one can be purchased for less that $20.)



R,R,A- Read, Record, Analyze -- Practice reading a few times, record, listen and analyze yourself/partner for "Fluency Factors" (smoothness, accuracy, clarity, expression, etc.)





  • Short, timed passage


  • Poems, Tongue Twisters, Song Lyrics


  • News Articles (Scholastic or Dogo News online)


  • Reader's Theaters


  • Word Lists


  • Short stories


  • Book talks


  • Persuasive Speech


  • Student Writing (Analyze for sentence fluency)


**Recordings can be posted to class webpage or sent to anyone via email!**



I thought about having students record themselves reading a short story that they have practiced and sending it to their younger brother/sister's class to have it played by the teacher!

Hi Jayme, I'm a reporter for CRItv.org in town and I was hoping I could talk to you about being a Teacher who blogs. I can't find your contact info on the site so I thought I'd just leave a comment. My email is patrick.boberg@criwmpennu.org
