  4. A Sense of TRUST … • Meaningful learning will require mutual trust between the teacher and you. • You are valuable and worthy of trust. • It is trust that will allow you to become an independent learner. • It is trust that will allow the teacher to focus her energy on teaching, not managing behaviors.

  5. A Freedom for Choice … • You will have a choice in your learning. • You will ask yourself… • “What are my goals in math?”, • “What will I do first?”, • “What will I accomplish?” • “What was I working on yesterday that I want to continue?” • Purpose + Choice = MOTIVATION! • It is choice that will motivate you and give you control of your own learning!

  6. A Sense of Community… • A sense of community provides ownership and holds all accountable for behaviors, effort, and learning. • Everyone celebrates each other’s progress. If a classmate is disruptive during work time, the community will join together to encourage, to support, and to hold the person accountable for his or her learning behavior.

  7. A Sense of Urgency… • Creating urgency in the classroom establishes a community where every moment of learning is important. • There is a reason “why” you do certain tasks. • You will be taught “why” you do things. • When a person understands the reason for a task, it motivates that person to achieve.

  8. Stamina… • You will need to build stamina in order to be successful in math. Just think of a runner training for a marathon. • If you don’t have the stamina to work for thirty minutes, you will not be successful. In fact, you may even become frustrated and lose motivation to succeed. • It is very important that you know how to be successful at each of the Daily 5 components.

  9. Routines for Independence… • Once you understand what is expected, have practiced strategies, and have built your stamina, it is time to “show-off” your independence! • To be successful with the Daily 5, it is important that you show that you can make decisions and monitor yourself regarding your progress. • By showing independence, you will allow your teacher to work with students in small groups. • It’s your chance to show your teacher that you can learn on your own!).
