Abstract

This research focused on how the use of Readers Theater would impact students' reading fluency and sight word knowledge. The problem addressed in this action research study was that students were failing to meet their benchmark fluency reading goals which negatively impacted their ability to read and comprehend grade-level texts. The research took place in a diverse kindergarten classroom with twenty-six students. This study was not able to be completed due to schools being closed to stop the spread of Covid-19. However, based on the literature review, it is likely that the results of this study would have supported that Readers Theater would have improved students' reading fluency and sight word knowledge.
