Daily 5 The Daily Five is a way of structuring the Reading block so that every student is independently engaged in meaningful literacy tasks. These research based tasks are ones that will have the biggest impact on student reading and writing achievement as well as foster children who love to read and write. Students receive explicit whole group instruction and then are given independent practice time to read and write independently while I provide focused intense instruction to individuals and small groups.
The Daily 5 is comprised of: Read to Self Work on Writing Read to Someone Word Work Listen to reading The CAFÉ Menu helps students understand and master different strategies used by successful readers. CAFÉ is an acronym for Comprehension, Accuracy, Fluency, and Expanding Vocabulary.
Our New Reading Series is WONDERS. We will start with the genre Fantasy. Then we will focus on Realistic Fiction and narrative nonfiction. It is a wonderful collection of great stories with all the skills and strategies we will need to be a successful reader. Paragraph writing is blended in with our focus on all the ingredients that make a paragraph fun to read.
