Parallel reading is a strategy utilized during reading to model and reinforce the development of fluency. Additionally, it is utilized to promote decoding confidence, particularly with insecure and struggling readers. Parallel reading is a form of paired choral reading performed by two readers, one more proficient than the other. Pairs may include: teacher and student, parent and student, volunteer and student, an older student with a younger student, or two students at the same grade level. Pairs are referred to as mentor and student during the process discussion.
