ch.10 Fluency and Automaticity
I found the section on teaching phrasing and intonation directly. I had an issue with this just the other day when one of my students was confused by aphrase. The phrase was "Dang it, I was asleep." She was reading it fairly flat nd was confused about why he realized he was asleep once he wasasleep. I read it aloud with her to demonstrate that he woke up and realized that was sleeping, not that he had fallen asleep. I demonstrated how the inflection changed the meaning of the phrase, and you best your inflection on the text.
