This year I will be implementing the Daily 5 in my first grade classroom. The 5 components are: Read To Self, Read to Someone, Word Work, Word on Writing, and Listen to Reading. This literacy program supports student development by allowing students to choose materials that work best for them. Students rotate through these centers building their independence and focus. While students work independently or with a partner, I work with small reading groups. This method allows students to have an abundant time to practice reading and writing with choice and purpose. It also allows for me to work with students in small groups to help them reach their individual goals. These materials will help us stay organized and give students hands-on tools to be successful readers and writers! The materials on my wishlist will be used for Word Work, Read to Self, and Read to Someone. Students will learn how to pick a book that fits their academic level and their interest. They will collect these books in their book boxes, read them every day, and change the books out throughout the year as they grow. The book boxes I have requested are durable and will last multiple years! The magnets, Play Doh, beads, and stamps will allow students to physically build and practice our spelling and high frequency words. The storage cart is to help keep these materials organized and easily accessible to students!
