Today we started the Daily 5. We learned about Read to Self (Lindsay). When we read to self we have to remember:
-Keep our eyes on the book (Sydney H)
-Read for the whole time (Cameron)
-Look at our books slowly (Nicholas)
-Don't talk to your neighbours when you're reading your book (Taylor)
-Pay attention to your book (Peyton)-Whisper if you're sounding something out (Jolene)
-Read your just right books (Ashley)
-Pick 1 spot and stay there (Jadyn)
-Get started right away (Jolene)-Treat books right (Rylee)
Today we also had Run Club and Gym. (Aliegha)
It was another busy day in Grade 1 & 2. Today we started the first component of The Daily 5, Read to Self, and it was a big success! This summer I read The Daily 5 and The Cafe Book and plan to implement this program in my classroom this year. At our school there are 5 teachers that hope to do the same. We are working together to share, discuss and celebrate with one another as we grow our professional practice around literacy. What I like best about The Daily 5 is that it fosters literacy independence and provides children with choice. I will be blogging a bit about how things are going as we learn about the other 4 components of The Daily 5. Stay tuned...
