Reading Fluency and Comprehension

Current research suggests that fluency is a big factor in determining how well the reader is understanding what they are reading. IE- Comprehension. If after the first reading, it does not sound fluent and has many interruptions due to a large amount of processing, then it is ok to read that same text a second time to get a flow of words and a feel or the story.
