dc.description.abstractThis study investigates the reading fluency, reading comprehension, and retelling skills of 135 typically developing primary school students in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades. It aims to evaluate their current levels and examine the relationships among these skills. The study was conducted using a relational survey design, which is one of the quantitative research methods. Data for the study were collected through narrative texts, reading comprehension, and retelling forms appropriate for each grade level. Audio recordings were taken to determine the students' reading fluency and retelling levels, while their reading comprehension levels were assessed in written form. Statistical software was used for data analysis. The results indicated that a significant portion of the students demonstrated instructional-level reading fluency, reading comprehension, and retelling skills. Moreover, a positive and significant relationship was found between the students' reading fluency and their reading comprehension and retelling skills. Based on these results, the retelling technique was used as an assessment tool in this study. However, it is recommended that it be employed as a teaching tool to develop students' retelling skills. Additionally, various methods and techniques can be utilized to improve students' reading fluency and retelling skills.
