the daily 5; fostering literacy independent in the elementary grades April 2, 2008
WOW!!!...is all I can say. I am on my 14th day of "training." I can see a lot of pride in my students. THEY take the ownership of their learning with this fantastic program. I have found that I do, indeed, spend much less time maintaining those students that I am NOT currently working with. No "gentle reminders," "pulling cards," "deducting time from recess," etc. They are so proud of their ability to use stamina (a big word they really like to refer to)and build their mental memory.
This is my 13th year of teaching. I highly recommend using this. It is very successful with my first graders, even though others felt it wouldn't.

After reading this book the light was definetly turned on. It is very easy to read and explains every step for implementing this in your classroom. I love how it teaches students to become independent and gives the teacher an oportunity to work one on one or in small groups.
Worth your time and money February 28, 2008
When I first heard of Daily 5 I thought, "Sure, another fad for classroom teachers." but what I've found is that it truly is a management system that allows me to teach. I am only part way through implementing, but it has already made a huge difference in my ability to focus on students who need help or who are ready for more. The biggest moment of truth was when my I.E.P. student who fights reading by himself every step of the way, read to himself for 15 minutes and was disappointed when it was time to stop. Well done Sisters!
Best book for independent practice! January 27, 2008

This book is a must-have for teachers who do guided reading and are tired of the noisy, messy centers! I started implementing this program in Nov. and now my students are completely independent on it! I have more time to meet with my guided reading groups (I have 6 groups and I see them all EVERY DAY!) and my students aren't bothering me during group time. Plus, I know my students are actually being productive and I can already see a difference in my students' reading abilities. BUY THIS BOOK! You will not regret it!

Easy to read format. Clearly outlines the components of the "daily five" and provides detailed narrative for introducing each component.
