I did not catch how you post your groups on the smart board, is this a special program or do you just copy and past on a word document? Thanks!

I am so sorry, but as a K newbie I'm having trouble working out what this time of day will look like! (Also, if you have time, what does your literacy intervention time look like for those who are not receiving intervention? The 5th round of Daily 5?) <br /><br />Thank you so much, <br /><br />Felicity <3 Ms. Flisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15918489802608303957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609605438475121764.post-41179518156609466422015-05-31T22:56:19.092-05:002015-05-31T22:56:19.092-05:00Oh my goodness.

This year I just had fewer students and much higher readers.

I was wondering....you do 4 rounds of daily 5 per day, and you pull each reading group so technically the kids are only making 3 choices per day? I was thinking about my schedule and I think I'll only have time to do 3 rounds per day and then with pulling each group they would only get to 2 rounds of daily 5 independently?

I usually have about 2 activities in each basket. As the year progresses it increases to 3. If you click the label for word work on my right side bar you will find all of my word work posts including the activities I used. I try to place one new activity with one activity they already know. I change my word work baskets every 2 weeks. I have instructed and talked and talked about how the students do the hands on part of the activity then go on to the worksheet. At the beginning of the year they turn in their work. This way I can go over it, "wow Johnny did a great job following directions on that paper," etc. I also take note in the ones that are wasting paper! As they get better I start having them turn in their work to their cubbies. I still try and thumb through it as I stuff their folder at the end of the day. I hope this helped!\ Feel free to email me at taradc87@hotmail.com<br /><br />Thanks,<br />TaraTarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830755146617373916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609605438475121764.post-15492847190349043882013-10-19T10:17:11.052-05:002013-10-19T10:17:11.052-05:00Can you explain or direct me to your posts that ex...Can you explain or direct me to your posts that explains how you run Word Work in your Daily5 schedule?
