Time the read, tap the miscues, and the scores are done: WCPM, accuracy, error ratio, and self-correction ratio. Save each read to a student and watch the growth line climb, read after read. FluencyCalc is built for K–5 teachers, reading interventionists, tutors, and homeschool parents who run running records and oral reading fluency (ORF) checks every week. LIVE TAP-MARKING • Any passage you own becomes tappable words on screen • Start the timer and tap a word to mark an error or a self-correction • Long-press to set the last word read; the 60-second mode stops the clock and asks for the stopping word, just like the paper convention • Undo, an insertion counter, and a running WCPM preview • A short original practice passage is included, so you can run a live read in your first minute GROWTH FOR EVERY READER • Save each read under the student; initials are enough • WCPM and accuracy charts over time, with your benchmark line • A growth-chart card to share with families and colleagues REPORTS FOR THE FILE • A clean PDF report of any assessment, with your name and school in the header • CSV for one student, or a summary of the whole class • Your own passage library, ready for the next read QUICK CALCULATOR • Enter words, errors, self-corrections, and time: every score appears instantly • "How calculated" shows the arithmetic with your numbers in it TWO CONVENTIONS, CLEARLY LABELED • ORF/WCPM (curriculum-based measurement): insertions are not counted, self-corrections count as correct • Running record: insertions count as errors, self-corrections feed the SC ratio • Reading-level bands with cut-offs you set, printed on every report • Your own benchmark targets for comparison PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no network calls: everything stays on this device • Student fields are designed for initials or first names • Optional text scanning happens on-device; images are never stored • Optional app lock FluencyCalc computes the numbers; interpretation always belongs to the educator. It includes no published leveled passages and no norm tables: you bring your own materials and targets. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
