Oral reading fluency — the ability to read text accurately, at a reasonable rate, with appropriate expression — bridges decoding and comprehension. LitLab makes fluency practice part of every reading session without adding to the teacher’s workload.

​
The fluency loop

1

Student reads

The student reads an assigned decodable story page by page in the LitLab reader.
2

Student records

When recording is enabled on the assignment, the student records each page aloud.
3

LitLab analyzes

Speech analysis calculates words per minute (WPM) and accuracy per page and per story.
4

Teacher reviews

Fluency data flows to the Teacher Dashboard and AI Fluency Analysis where teachers can listen, confirm, or correct the AI’s scoring.

​

​
Re-record safety net

If the system detects 0 WPM on at least 3 pages (microphone issue, silent recording, off-task, etc.), the student is prompted to re-record those pages before moving on. This catches missing data before it shows up in your reports.
