Abstract: Students are regularly expected to engage with connected text during the school day. However, for some readers, these demands can be overwhelming, particularly when reading fluency is still developing. In this article, we highlight Synchronous Paired Oral Reading Techniques (SPORT) as one approach that teachers can use to help striving readers access connected text. Discussion includes who may benefit, how to select peer or adult tutors, and using SPORT to more productively consume existing classroom text or increase the amount of text students read.
