1 C I Want ANDY! Fluency Fact Task ^ 2014, Jen Hello Literacy CaRDS 36 Fluency Task Cards & 2 Comprehension Checks

2 Product Instructions These fluency fact cards (Candy edition) are designed to be used at a fluency center or independent work station. Students should ideally work with a fluency partner to read and give feedback to each other on their fluent (or not-sofluent) reading of the candy facts. The most important component of this resource is the repeated readings of the facts at least three times. Fluency expert, Timothy Rasinski, says a large majority of increasing fluency is having opportunities to practice the same text more than once or twice. (Rasinski, 2014.) *see Fluency Research Base (p.3). There are two sets of cards, for a total of 36 cards. However, they are divided into two sets of 18 because I have created a front & back comprehension check for the first and second set of 18 facts.. The cover card and directions card should be the first and second card in the set when assembled. I printed the fact cards on white cardstock. They are numbered and have a hole-punch guide at the top. Cut them apart and print copies of each set s corresponding assessment (Artifact Sheet).. Answer keys are also provided. Place the cards & assessment in your fluency center. Give feedback to students on the Artifact Sheet. 2014, Hello Literacy

3 Fluency Research Base There is a long and strong research base for the explicit teaching and practice of fluency. Students need to know, be taught and learn the different strategies that fluent readers use and non-fluent readers don t use. Students need to learn that fluent reading frees up cognitive space leaving room to think about the reading. Less time and energy to decode the words leaves more time and energy to think about what the words mean. The strategy of repeated readings is also well documented in the research and has been for many years. The research base of feedback is also well documented, if students can get corrective feedback from their peers after each read, then each read after that will be more fluent than the last. Research also shows that students do not read enough nonfiction. Nonfiction text can be difficult to understand because of the amount of information given on any one page. Use these cards to have students practice what they are learning by taking notes, jots and sketches about what is learned from each card. 2014, Hello Literacy

4 1 Candy, also called sweets, is a confection that uses sugar as its main ingredient. Candies include chocolate, chewing gum and sugar candy. Candy is a favorite food all over the world. 2 Cotton candy was invented by a dentist in 1897 when he and John C. Wharton patented the electric candy machine. Originally called Fairy Floss, it was an instant success with the public. 3 Most of the candy in Candy Forest including the Chocolate River used in the movie, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory are edible because the director wanted it to look realistic. 4 The creator of the world s most popular candy bar, the Snickers bar, was Frank Mars. The name of the candy bar came from his horse, Snickers.

5 5 The Mars candy company is still family owned and produce other candy bars like 3 Muskateers, Skittles, Dove Chocolate, Milky Way, Starburst and Twix. 6 Apparently, the average German candy lover eats more than twice as much chocolate per year than the average American chocolate lover, eating 114 bars per year compared to Chocolate is dangerous to dogs and many die from consuming chocolate. Humans can also die of chocolate poisoning especially elderly people whose digestive systems are weak.. 8 Although cavemen probably did not eat Twizzlers and Butterfingers, honey is a naturally sweet treat, and has been a favorite sweet snack throughout history.

6 9 According to the National Confectioners Association, the ancient Egyptians, Arabs and Chinese candied their nuts using honey; an early form of candy. 10 The Mayans and Aztecs both prized the cocoa bean as food from the gods. In 1519, Spanish explorers in Mexico discovered the cacao tree and chocolate made its way to Europe. 11 People in England and the American colonies enjoyed boiled sugar candy in the 17 th century, but hard candy like peppermints and lemon drops weren t popular until the 19 th century. 12 Candy is made by dissolving sugar in water by heating it up. Hot temperatures make hard candy, medium temps make soft candy and cool temps make chewy candy.

7 13 The most popular holidays for candy sales are Halloween, Easter, Christmas and Valentine s Day. 50% of kids say chocolate is their favorite candy at Halloween % of kids say chocolate is their favorite candy at Halloween. 24% of kids like fruity candy and 10% the kids like gum.

And, more kids sneak candy to school in the days following Halloween than any other time of year.

13 1 In a survey, 54% of kids between the ages of 6-11 said they like to suck a candy cane. 24% said they like to bite or crunch the candy and 19% said they like to lick it. The other 3% didn t answer the question. 2 Most candy is made in a factory. Watch this video to see how dum-dums are made. 3 4 There is a rumor that if you swallow bubble gum that it will be stuck in the intestines section of your digestive system for 7 years. This is not quite accurate. Many types of food can cause cavities, not just candy. The main culprits are juice, soda, peanut butter, crackers and potato chips.

14 5 6 If you eat and swallow too much gum, you could cause a blockage in your intestines and your gum would need to be surgically removed. Lollipops were invented in1908 by George Smith who thought they would be easier to eat if they were on a stick. 7 According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the world s largest lollipop weighed 4,759 pounds, made by Franssons of Sweden for a festival. 8 Marshmallows are a gooey treat made from the wild mallow plant first discovered in Egypt s marshes. Whipped sap from the root makes to gooey white candy called a marshmallow.

15 9 10 Today s machines make about 5,900 lollipops a minute. 8 million dum-dums are made each day. Seriously, who really eats that many? Today mallow root is replaced with gelatin and there are only 4 ingredients; corn syrup, starch, sugar and water, which are run through pipes and cut into uniform pieces. 11 Today, Americans purchase about 90 million pounds of marshmallows every year! 12 While we are talking about marshmallows, the first documented recipe for s mores was recorded in 1927 in a Girl Scout Handbook.

16 13 14 According to NECCO, the candy company that produces Sweethearts conversation hearts, about 8 billion of them are made each year. These heart candy sales are highest around Valentine s Day. The candy heart company produces about 10 new sayings for the hearts each year. You can have your own custom saying put on them but it s going to cost you because the company makes you pay for the entire day s run, about 1.6 million hearts. 15 Most popular sayings are: Be Mine True Love Kiss Me Sweet Talk Say Yes IIYou 16 During World War I, the U.S. Army commissioned several chocolate manufacturers to produce pound blocks of chocolate. They were shipped out and distributed to the troops.

17 17 The Pez dispenser comes from Pfefferminz, the German word for peppermint. Pez candy was first sold in Vienna, Austria, more than 70 years ago. Today, more than 3 billion Pez candies are eaten in the US alone. 18 U.S. President, Ronald Reagan, loved jelly beans. While he was president he served them in the Oval Office and on Air Force One. Jelly beans are the most popular candy at Easter time. Directions: With your fluency partner, read each fact card at least three times.
