Daily 5 Photos

As part of our ELA program, Grade One and Two students incorporate the Daily 5 into their regular ELA routine. The Daily 5 consists of Reading to Self, Reading to Someone, Listening to Reading, Word Work, and Working on Writing.

Reading to Self is independent reading.

Reading to Someone is reading with a partner and discussing the story as they read to demonstrate comprehension and understanding.

Listening to Reading is listening to a book read aloud online through tumblebooks, bookflix, or raz-kids. Students can read along with the highlighted words as they listen to the book being read.

Word Work is a unique way of practicing spelling words, sight words, and other high-frequency practiced words.

Working on Writing is a small guided writing group where the students write creatively or in a structured lesson.
