Reading fluency in Grade 2 is crucial for children as it lays the foundation for their overall literacy development. At this stage, students begin to connect phonics—the relationship between letters and sounds—with fluent reading. When children can recognize words quickly and accurately, they can focus more on comprehension rather than word decoding. This shift enhances their ability to understand and engage with texts.

Parents and teachers should care about reading fluency because it directly affects a child's academic success. Fluent readers often show improved confidence and a love for reading, which motivates them to explore books of varying genres. Additionally, strong reading skills are linked to better performance across all subjects, as literacy is a fundamental skill utilized in every area of learning.

Furthermore, reinforcing phonics instruction at home and in the classroom can lead to quicker improvements in fluency. Encouraging regular reading at home, providing diverse reading materials, and employing fun phonics games can significantly help struggling readers. By fostering reading fluency, parents and teachers not only support students' immediate academic needs but also instill a lifelong appreciation for reading, shaping well-rounded and articulate individuals who thrive in all aspects of their lives.
