What is Daily 5?
Daily 5 is what we do during Power Hour and when Mrs. Wanke is working with Guided Reading groups. Student's have pick between 5 literacy activities. (Listen to stories, Word Work, Work on Writing, Read with a Partner, and Technology)
In the beginning we learn one activity a week and practice for short chunks of time. We slowly build up to longer chunks of time, with our ultimate goal being 20 minutes. We call this building stamina.
So far we have learned how to do Word Work and Listen to Stories. Look at some of us as we build our stamina.
Listening to stories gives us an opportunity to hear fluent reading. When we hear fluent reading it helps us to become a fluent reader too!
Listening to stories helps us to match the words with the text. It can help us learn high frequency words!
Word work helps us to become better readers of our trick words/high frequency words.
Word work helps us to become better spellers of our trick words/high frequency words.
