[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My third grader still struggles with fluency. I'm not sure it will ever "click" for him. It clicked for my first grader when she was in kindergarten. She's now pretty much as good of a reader as my third grader.[/quote] Please take this as well intentioned and because when you say fluency I don't how much your third grader struggles. I would say that if he is still struggling a lot and is below grade level, that you may need some outside help, if you haven't already sought help. Things like lower working memory, dyslexia, etc. can have a big impact on learning to read. Sometimes kids can read well, but seem to have comprehension issues well below their mechanical skills (this would describe my second grader). Not every child who learns to read later has a learning issue, but by third grade, it may be something to look into. [/quote]
