Which stage in literacy development involves students being able to read with accuracy, speed, and proper expression?

  1. Beginning

  2. Emergent

  3. Fluent

  4. Intermediate

The correct answer is: Beginning

In literacy development, the stage that involves students being able to read with accuracy, speed, and proper expression is the Fluent stage. This is the level where students demonstrate a high level of reading proficiency and are able to read smoothly, accurately, and with appropriate expression. A beginning reader is just starting to acquire basic reading skills and is not yet able to read fluently like a student in the Fluent stage. The Emergent stage typically involves learning pre-reading skills and beginning to recognize letters and sounds. The Intermediate stage is a transitional stage between the beginning and fluent stages, where students continue to develop their reading skills but are not yet reading at a fluent level.
