DAILY 5
We are launching 'DAILY 5' in our classroom today. We begin by working on 'Read to Self' where the kids read books by looking at the pictures, words, or retelling. The children will work on building stamina by trying to read to themselves uninterrupted for 3 minutes. We try to reach that goal 3 times a day then add a minute on each time until we are successful for 7-10 minutes. Watch for a letter describing DAILY 5 to come home with your child this evening.
 Music Day

 ~Be sure to practice your word lists that came home last week! Some lists are starting to come back already and the children are SUPER excited to get a sticker put on their chart! TIP: Do the words out of order so your child isn't memorizing them in the order they are placed.
