Reading Fluency Mini Unit: Persuasive Texts – Voice & Change | Stage 2 | Years 3–4

This resource is part of the Hello Primary Fluency Mini Unit series and is designed to support persuasive and literary texts exploring voice, leadership, fairness, argument and authority. It works well alongside Kicking Goals with Goodsey and Magic and other persuasive texts, giving you a consistent fluency routine while reinforcing persuasive concepts.

This 5-week fluency mini unit combines explicit fluency instruction with persuasive articles, persuasive speeches and opinion speeches. Students build accuracy, phrasing, expression, punctuation and automaticity through repeated reading, goal setting and reflection, and Tier 2 vocabulary is embedded throughout so students can use it in their own persuasive writing and speaking.

Designed for busy teachers, this ready-to-use resource gives you everything you need to run a structured fluency routine in your classroom.
