The Daily 5
We are beginning the Daily Five this year in Kindergarten. During the Daily 5 students choose an activity to do while I meet with small groups of students. We will begin the year by all participating in the same activity: read to self. We will build stamina to be able to read independently longer. As the year goes on we will learn how to participate in different activities so that we will have more choices.
I PICK and How You Can Help At Home:
We teach children about choosing good-fit books. It is important to remember that books that are a good-fit for one person may not be a good fit for another. We use this poster to help children learn how to pick out a good book to read. You can help by going over this poster and having them practice picking out books to read at home. You can visit the library, go through books at home, or use the "book in a bag" books to practice.
