My “Daily 5” Baseline
One thing I want to explore this year is The Daily 5. My baseline of understanding of it was that a lot of teachers on Twitter and Pinterest do something called The Daily 5, and there was something to do with a cafe and of course it has a hashtag #d5chat.
That was last semester. I’m a little further along in my understanding, though not by much. I bought the book but haven’t looked at it yet. I know there are five components (ok, that is a ‘duh’ observation) and it supports literacy instruction. But I’m intrigued and in an instructional place where I can incorporate the ideas into the elementary reading/language group I will work with this year. I am looking forward to learning more about The Daily 5 through social media and classroom implementation.
