The rubric provides criteria for evaluating fluency when reading aloud across 5 areas: volume, expression, phrasing, smoothness, and pace. Readers can score from 1-4 in each area, with higher scores meaning the reading displays appropriate volume, expression matching the text, smooth phrasing, lack of unnecessary pauses, and a consistent medium pace.
