This week we started learning about the first 2 of our 5 Daily 5 routines. We spent some time during reading practicing Read to Self and Read to Someone. We talked a lot about the purpose of these activities and decided that we Read to Self and Read to Someone to help build our fluency, to learn new words, to become a better reader, and because it's fun! We also spent some time talking about the teacher's job and the students' job during this time. During Daily 5, the teacher is usually working with a reading group, so the students job involves working quietly, staying focused on their book, and staying in one spot. We will continue to work on both Read to Self and Read to Someone next week as we build our reading stamina.
