  9. Daily Five During our reading time this year, we will be doing "The Daily Five."  The term "The Daily Five" refers to the five choices that the students will be able to choose once the program is up and running. Read to self- Students will get their book boxes (full of good-fit books of their choice) or choose from our classroom library, find a comfortable spot in the classroom, and will read to themselves. Children will try to increase their reading stamina. Read to Someone-Students will pair up with a partner. They will both get their book bags, find a comfortable spot in the classroom, and will take turns reading to each other.  Work on writing- Students will use the strategies learned in writer's workshop in order to develop their writing skills. Word Work-  Students will use different means to create words (play-doh, stencils, etc.) or will use different work studies such as sorting words or putting them in ABC order.  Listen to reading- Students need to listen to examples of good readers so they will have many books on tape which they can listen to and read along with.Read to Someone-Students will pair up with a partner.
