6. Goals for the Session Overview of the Daily 5 View modeled and guided reading lessons Create and model an ELA lesson Reflections

7. Essential Questions? How can I incorporate all the necessary skills into my 90 minute reading block? What should my focus be during the 90 minute reading block?

8. Would you like to successfully… Differentiate instruction in your classroom? Teach children in small groups? Confer individually with students? Do all of this while the rest of your class is fully engaged in independent reading and writing activities?

9. A daily routine for reading and writing…

10. The Daily Five is a literacy structure that allows for differentiation in the classroom and provides consistency. It is an integrated literacy instruction and classroom management system for use in reading and writing workshops. It is a system of five literacy tasks that teaches students independence. What is The Daily Five?

11. What sets The Daily Five Apart? For Teachers…. Deliver 3 – 5 whole group lessons each day Teach 3 – 4 small groups of children each day Confer with 9 – 12 individual students each day Hold all students accountable for eyes- on-text For Students… Engaged in the act of reading and writing for extended amounts of time Receive focused instruction on building and maintaining independence Receive tailored instruction through whole group, small group, and/or individual conferring, by their skilled classroom teacher, each day

12. The Daily Five is…. 1)Tasks 5 tasks 2)System Teaching all students independence 3)Structure Providing consistency

13. The Daily Five does NOT hold content, it is a structure. Content comes from your curriculum. Work on writing = structured time to write Read to self = structured time to read

14. What does it look like ? BRIEF whole group instruction One round of Daily 5 BRIEF whole group instruction 2 nd round of Daily 5 BRIEF whole group instruction 3 rd round of Daily 5

15. Brain research from Michael Grinder shows that a childs age is equal to how many minutes of direct instruction they can stick within the upper cortex of their brain. After that time, thinking shifts to the lower cortex (which controls eating, sleeping, breathing). This is why direct instruction lessons are BRIEF!!

16. Why is it called The Daily Five? There isnt time for five rounds! It is called The Daily Five because there are five literacy components for children to choose from when they go off to work. These components are: It is called The Daily Five because there are five literacy components for children to choose from when they go off to work. These components are: Read to Self Read to Self Read to Someone Read to Someone Listen to Reading Listen to Reading Work on Writing Work on Writing Working with Words Working with Words It is NOT called The Daily Five because they have to do all 5 each day.

17. These foundations are important to The Daily Five: Trusting students Providing choice Nurturing community Creating a sense of urgency Building stamina Staying out of students way once routines are established

18. In terms of The Daily 5, meaningful learning will require mutual trust and respect between the teacher and the student. We are all valuable and unique and worthy of respect and caring. It is trust that allows students to become independent learners. It is trust that allows the teacher to focus energy on teaching, not managing behaviors. The Daily 5 will help establish a Sense of Trust

19. We all know and realize that we need and love structure and routine. These are very much needed in the classroom. In terms of The Daily - Students question: What are my goals in reading and writing? What will I do first? Whom will I choose to work with? What will I accomplish? What was I working on yesterday that I want to continue today? Purpose + Choice = MOTIVATION! Choice motivates students and puts them in charge of their own learning! The Daily 5 will establish a Freedom for Choice

20. Would you wear these shoes …

21. to play football?

22. Would you wear these shoes

23. to walk the beach?

24. A sense of community provides everyone with ownership to hold others accountable for behaviors, effort, learning, order, and kindness In terms of The Daily 5, everyone rejoices in each others progress. If a classmate is disrupting others during work time, the community will join together to encourage, support, and hold the person accountable for his or her learning behavior. The Daily 5 will establish a Sense of Community

25. In terms of The Daily 5, creating urgency in the classroom establishes a community where every moment of learning is important. There is a reason why certain tasks are done. An example of why is something like this. Why do we read? Well… research says that reading each day is the best way to become a better reader - its as simple as that! When a person understands the reason for a task, it motivates that person to persevere. The Daily 5 will establish a Sense of Urgency

26. In terms of The Daily 5, you will need to build up stamina in order to be successful readers and writers. Just think of the process as a runner training for a marathon. If you dont have the stamina to read for thirty minutes, you will not be successful. In fact, you may even become frustrated and lose motivation to succeed. Therefore, it is important that students are taught how to be successful at each of the five key components of The Daily 5. The Daily 5 will establish Stamina

27. In terms of The Daily 5, once students understand what is expected of them, have practiced strategies, and have built up stamina, it is time to show-off independence! To be successful with The Daily 5, it is important for students to show that they can make decisions on their own and monitor themselves regarding their own progress. By showing independence, it allows the teacher to work with students in small groups (in other words, its a chance for the child to show the teacher that he/she can learn on their own!). The Daily 5 will establish Routines for Independence Stay Out of the Way

28. Daily Reading Block Based on the Daily 5 model
