Word Work By Donna L. Barrett
Daily Five • During our Daily Five rotations you will pick one of the following: • Read to self • Read with someone • Work on writing • Listen to reading • Working with words
Why Do We Need Word Work? Expanding your vocabulary leads to greater fluency in reading, and better comprehension. Practicing spelling words or high frequency words using manipulatives helps you store the words in your long term memory.
