Relationships of Three Components of Reading Fluency to Reading Comprehension. (2008, background): “…(1998), there is evidence that fluency is both a contributor to and product of comprehension; they thus advocated viewing comprehension and fluency as having a reciprocal causal relationship, a view currently espoused by practitioners as well as reading researchers (Pikulski & Chard, 2005).”
Illuminating the Effects of Dynamic Lighting on Student Learning (2012, background): “Pikulski and Chard (2005) described fluency as the bridge between phonics and comprehension.”
Oral Reading Fluency Norms: A Valuable Assessment Tool for Reading Teachers (2006, background): “Recent examples are Hudson, Lane, and Pullen (2005); Kuhn (2004/ 2005); and Pikulski and Chard (2005).”
From “What is Reading?” to What is Literacy? (2016, background): “Reading fluency is typically regarded as the bridge between accurate word identification and comprehension (Pikulski & Chard, 2005).”
Using Authentic Materials for Extensive Reading to Promote English Proficiency. (2012, background): “Copious studies already exist in support of extensive reading (Krashion, 2004; Pikulski & Chard, 2005; Silva, 2009; Therrien, 2004).”
Pleasure reading and reading rate gains (2014, background): “…reported, even though reading rate increases must be accompanied by high levels of comprehension to be considered as fluency development (e.g., Pikulski & Chard, 2005); (e) little information is presented about the readability of the reading rate passages themselves or about the students’…”
Fluency Has a Role in the Simple View of Reading (2013, background): “Our finding that fluency mediates the relationship between decoding and reading comprehension lends empirical support to Pikulski and Chard's (2005 ) view that fluency bridges decoding and reading comprehension.”
Predictive Validity of Early Literacy Indicators From the Middle of Kindergarten to Second Grade (2009, background): “Fluency in connected, authentic text serves as a bridge between decoding and reading comprehension (Chard, Vaughn, & Tyler, 2002; Pikulski & Chard, 2005).”
