A1: Daily 5 is a structure used to foster literacy independence in young children.
Are you using it with your first graders, Jenna?
Good. I'm getting the hang of 1st grade.
A1: A skill set that I wish all of my HS kids came with
A1: Authentic opportunities to apply reading skills/strategies that promote/support a love of learning to read.
Yes! Using and blogging about! It's been an awesome adventure!
Yes! Daily 5 is what the rest of the kids are doing during literacy, and so much more!
A1:Daily 5 is a tool that completely changed my classroom :)
, are you teaching HS now?
Penny from SC-principal BSMS
A1 Read to Self, Read to Someone, Word Work, Work on Writing, Listen to Reading - What students do while T conference &/or Groups
Key point... Daily 5 supports lifelong literacy. https://t.co/ioAIlww1xT
A1: Authentic opportunities to apply reading skills/strategies that promote/support a love of learning to read.
A1: Daily Five is an instructional strategy where students are engaged in tasks focused on reading skills/strategies.

TRUTH! https://t.co/LfRjyTyLiI
A1a: A life (and sanity) saver for teachers using workshop model wondering why learners couldn't be independent!
A1: Daily 5 also promotes independence and responsibility.
A1: Allows for authentic learning; Daily 5 is what our Ss are doing while away from the teacher during literacy time.

A1: Daily 5 also promotes independence and responsibility.
A1 Students are not doing "busywork" but are choosing how they want to learn to read
A2: The planning is easier.
Good evening, ! I'm hoping to jump in as I can tonight. Eager to discuss Daily Five!
A2: Daily 5 makes the learner responsible for his/her own learning. It's not an activity. It's building good literacy practice.
D5 is very successful, in my walk abouts Ts using D5 have gradually released responsibility onto Ss, https://t.co/ilLqA0pTed
Daily 5's workshop format allows for students to be engaged in the practice of reading strategies. https://t.co/mz5EbEuTno
a crucial model that has made the workshop model possible for me!
A2: Ss are actually doing what they're supposed to.
A2: It's more transcendent. I wake up and write, drive and listen to books, play bananagrams, ind. read, etc. stations not nec. :)
Sounds like quite a time saver for you. https://t.co/oZOiBFG4by
A2: Not having to spend planning and changing out centers. Authentic!
A1: It's for all grades! Unfortunately, strategies get lost in upper/middle school.
Like planning, data analysis, planning interventions. https://t.co/qcoEvLDlXn
Yes! Ts can spend time doing more valuable things.
A2: A main difference between D5 & Centers is the purposeful effort to increase engagement and motivation. https://t.co/Vb7uJVYlRu

Yes, I spent way too many Fridays copying things before I found D5!
Vice Principal at St. Nicholas elementary school very fortunate to work with staff

A2: A structure to tch Ss to be independent and build stamina.
A2 D5 has consistency, the 5 activities center on literacy: Writing, reading, vocab, listening, speaking. Promote independence,
A2: Once D5 is launched, tchrs focus time on instruct. vs creating and changing centers.
A2: It's 5 rsrch based activities that stay the same all year. What changes is what Ss read and write.
Authentic and purposeful opportunities to engage in reading/writing. CHOICE to spend time on activities that support S growth.
Evidence: Lifelong lover of literacy! https://t.co/7aYu0Cx61b
A2: It's more transcendent. I wake up and write, drive and listen to books, play bananagrams, ind. read, etc. stations not nec. :)

Great to see you in tonight Chris. What do you teach in PA?
joining late Kathy Ross Learning Choice is more meaningful
No This is Beth,first grade teacher from Nebraska. When I logged in for this chat, it turned me into my daughter! No tech-savvy here
Good point. Sometimes stations are fluff or fillers. Daily 5 is purposeful.
Hello so glad to see this going on Twitter was just talking about setting up Daily 5 in a first grade classroom.
A2 Daily 5 fosters student independence and choice. Paired with CAFE and it becomes a key way to build goal setting behaviors.
Isn't that where we want teachers to be able to focus their time? https://t.co/TW1h4eI3Px
A2: Once D5 is launched, tchrs focus time on instruct. vs creating and changing centers.
A2: D5 allows Ss to take ownership and responsibility for their own meaningful learning and the T to truly meet each S's needs

Stamina is something that can not be overlooked. Too impo.
student driven-Yes! https://t.co/MpSAUGsiOS
A2-Ss have choice and independence in their learning in D5. D5 is student driven and centered. Centers are teacher driven.
Yes-Ts are busy/sometimes ctrs become "busy" worksheets-not good for Ss.
so great be in a smart "room"
Do you ever nudge students to choose certain choices?
A3 still a work in progress for me. Looking forward to hear other's thoughts
Give Ss direction, purpose, expectations, life skills
Sometimes I choose for Ss.
A3: Listening in on this one. I have seen others use chimes.
You'll be able to tell us how you know it works when we get to Q6. https://t.co/TAamXM5bec
Love the topic tonight! is near & dear to my heart. This structure WORKS!
lurking to learn more about daily 5 as I watch the
A3: Transitions can be hard if procedures aren't taught! Procedures are critical
A3: works best when Ss manage . I love it when students tell me what they need time for and then insist on getting it.
For me this changes- My strategies for transitioning depend on the group & what works well for them
are you a teacher or a student? https://t.co/IRZVsq1x5a
Yes! I love the differentiation that D5 allows for https://t.co/QCTbdIQIJk
A2: student choice and differentiation are embedded in Daily 5 activities, conferring, and guided groups

Love the topic tonight! is near & dear to my heart. This structure WORKS!
Your'e just in time. We're on Q3.
signing out, thanks for the all for moderating!
A3: Sometimes a timer. Usually something calm so as to not interrupt the focus of the group.
We know that busy work has no research based evidence of working1 https://t.co/Bw9RZZ2mCX
A2: Student choice/rigor w/in Daily 5. More than busy work.
A3:Trns. r vital to D5 as they foster the movmt supported by brain research. We use aud sgnls to start trns, saving voice for inst.
I used to use a serenity bell from 10,000 villages
You're in the right place. https://t.co/oWB5kAC1fX
Hello so glad to see this going on Twitter was just talking about setting up Daily 5 in a first grade classroom.
Welcome Kathleen! What do you teach? https://t.co/ptfDitmhQX
joining late Kathy Ross Learning Choice is more meaningful
A3 we have a D5 board with a magnet on the back of each D5. We put up the D5 s that are open that day. Can't always fit in 5.
Q for everyone: Do your Ss choose all rounds before you start? ?
Welcome Beth! https://t.co/z2zTqViQBT
No This is Beth,first grade teacher from Nebraska. When I logged in for this chat, it turned me into my daughter! No tech-savvy here
Why is it hard to imagine life at school w/o Daily 5?
I saw Feb. 2nd as Rethinking Inventions! I'm not mastering the multi-tasking tonight!
A3 Still working on this part. I do use chimes. Ss choose which Daily. I've used chart & ask Ss then check. Got it down to seconds.
Love watching the kindergarteners build it in September.
Purposeful practice that makes helps students make immense progress. https://t.co/kXzbH4FGT6
Good point. Sometimes stations are fluff or fillers. Daily 5 is purposeful.
So excited to hear about it Jenn! https://t.co/0FVgUuJjJy
Hello so glad to see this going on Twitter was just talking about setting up Daily 5 in a first grade classroom.
will have resources in the transcripts for tonight.
A3 I've seen howler timers, iPhone timers, call/responses, chimes. Most efficient transitions are solid routines. Time well spent.
we are building -wide and our kids have benefited tremendously - helps kids set individual goals and relate to work
You all know Jessy teaches HS, right? https://t.co/g2HQAJO94r
A3: works best when Ss manage . I love it when students tell me what they need time for and then insist on getting it.
A3 taking time to practice strong routines in the beginning has been key for me. The year I didn't was not good.
It is wonderful to see. It is such a victory for Ss.
Sounds like effective use of instructional time. https://t.co/lslirjiSW4
A3 Ss checkin and start immediately, read-to-someone's are left. They give and accept a polite invitation.
This was our goal from the start of our careers...it was easier said than done until we figured out D5! https://t.co/09F5n3Jbw8
A2: D5 allows Ss to take ownership and responsibility for their own meaningful learning and the T to truly meet each S's needs
A3 I set the alarm to a musical chime for transitions through my Outbox run it through my ENO board w/the schedule up
Welcome Gwen! What do you teach?
https://t.co/HFshNSkrXs
happy to stop by tonight. Love the D5. So hard to imagine life at school without it.
So true! Once Ss build stamina a whole new world of success opens up. https://t.co/9sZHvofqWa
Stamina is something that can not be overlooked. Too impo.
Transitions in Daily 5 are purposeful. Stimulates the brain. https://t.co/Mdjvfd9wMv
A3:Trns. r vital to D5 as they foster the movmt supported by brain research. We use aud sgnls to start trns, saving voice for inst.
I do like the phrase "purposeful practice". Gives the Ss a reason to do the work--a goal, a focus.
Wow, now that sounds techy!! https://t.co/Axw07mS76g
A3 I set the alarm to a musical chime for transitions through my Outbox run it through my ENO board w/the schedule up
Varies in classrooms. Some choose each rotation. Only x per workplace. https://t.co/U8oaOlW8vg
Q for everyone: Do your Ss choose all rounds before you start? ?
. When they have ownership by choice - they are in charge of their learning. I function as a coach.
Love it! https://t.co/jqn9u3Gesz
A3 I set the alarm to a musical chime for transitions through my Outbox run it through my ENO board w/the schedule up
If we see Ss that need work, we will nudge. Each day Ss must do 1 of the reading and one of the writing https://t.co/wpOQJ7dw2m
Do you ever nudge students to choose certain choices?
Steps forward! https://t.co/8RFFIs8JAK
A3 still a work in progress for me. Looking forward to hear other's thoughts
yes! Especially this time of the year! great brain breaks!
A4 I usually check during individual conferences...would more ideas!
A5: helping them to become aware of their language & how to rephrase, to illustrate.
A4 I would sometimes give a reading mission tied to our teaching point. After Read to Someone, they had to be able to answer 1 Q.
Huzzah! as Ss move to later grades-experience w/independence and choice allows more depth and learning! https://t.co/hItTvwtiD0
we are building -wide and our kids have benefited tremendously - helps kids set individual goals and relate to work
my kids cheer on days that all 5 rounds are open! What other "more work" direction gets that reaction?!
Q4 I've started having students read to self into an ipad recorder
A4:Freq ind. conf, being out among the class conf, Touch Points and keeping track of mtgs and progress in conf ntbk,
A4 I would walk around and see what's happening when I could. Sometimes I took one rotation off from small groups to just watch.
As stamina builds, we move to 3 round of D5 each day. https://t.co/mADlez0ycC
A3 we have a D5 board with a magnet on the back of each D5. We put up the D5 s that are open that day. Can't always fit in 5.
You use to transition in Daily 5? Hmmm...
A4: I've used an accountability, self-eval rubric in the past. Ss are usually harder on themselves than I am
A4 Most of our Ss have reading journals, and many of our teachers CONFER. That is my accountability method of choice for RtoS. :)
We have kids choose before each round, it is what puts kids on task by verbalizing their choice.
https://t.co/ciBnBxGj0N
Q for everyone: Do your Ss choose all rounds before you start? ?
Great point, and when Ss struggle, revisit routines! https://t.co/mbfrHIpBPh
A3 taking time to practice strong routines in the beginning has been key for me. The year I didn't was not good.
Frequent progress monitoring & individual/class reflection. Show Ss how their progress is a reflection of hard work.
Oooh! Great info! https://t.co/x8JRvnJHYQ
A4:Freq ind. conf, being out among the class conf, Touch Points and keeping track of mtgs and progress in conf ntbk,
Do they have time to listen later?
That is what I do - makes sense to me
Just started reading journals too! https://t.co/hS7W6YQcdu
A4 Most of our Ss have reading journals, and many of our teachers CONFER. That is my accountability method of choice for RtoS. :)
A4 Through goal setting conferences
What are you doing when you're "watching"?
Keeping transitions facilitated by a soft tone allows for less upset of our auditory kids. https://t.co/EJP76r3LIY
A3 I've seen howler timers, iPhone timers, call/responses, chimes. Most efficient transitions are solid routines. Time well spent.
I'm just doing Read to Self and Word Work now. I had listen to reading but didn't have the tech to keep up.
Yes, as do I. Only once a week per student.
Where are you ? https://t.co/hRTGC1BGxR
we are building -wide and our kids have benefited tremendously - helps kids set individual goals and relate to work
Perfect words of advise for success! https://t.co/OINyHkRCKo
A3 taking time to practice strong routines in the beginning has been key for me. The year I didn't was not good.
A4- through conferring. Also, kids tend to hold each other more accountable during D5.
Do you have a structure for these anecdotal notes? https://t.co/QGQzwxIksA
A4:Freq ind. conf, being out among the class conf, Touch Points and keeping track of mtgs and progress in conf ntbk,
A4: exit ticket, pair-share or other mutually accountable closure works well for timeliness;
yes! https://t.co/5bY1CTUvDP
I do like the phrase "purposeful practice". Gives the Ss a reason to do the work--a goal, a focus.
I got three old tape recorders and 30 books on tape from ebay. They love it!
A4 accountability is easy when students are taught expectations, choose own books & writing and are engaged.
So well said Gwen! https://t.co/KWLyHWPDp9
. When they have ownership by choice - they are in charge of their learning. I function as a coach.
Students see value in accountable talk with peers and in journaling that begins & ends with teacher conference time
I tried to teach Ss how to use our old computers but they were lost haha
Keep to great conversation going Off to in the morning!
A4 WOWriting: Had a publishing board. Ss wrote piece, Ss requested a conference, then published it. Shared piece at morning meeting.
A perfect way to do this on the way to another conference. https://t.co/sI5hDtFtxa
A4 I usually check during individual conferences...would more ideas!
Totally agree! Don't be the cause of a frustrating transition. https://t.co/puTemukfMJ
Keeping transitions facilitated by a soft tone allows for less upset of our auditory kids. https://t.co/EJP76r3LIY
A3 I've seen howler timers, iPhone timers, call/responses, chimes. Most efficient transitions are solid routines. Time well spent.
A5: D5 promotes independence so I can work with individual kids and small groups
Have to check out early for a SOTU assignment. Thank you to everyone! Still so much to learn!
They're probably wondering what these cassettes are.
A5: Ss are reading books at THIER level. A S may be a grade level behind in text all day but during read to self he's on his turf :)
FLEXIBLE Groups!!! Creating groups based on a need & not a level. using data to support instructional goals & intervention needs.
Ours always cheer too! https://t.co/IH9vfsb3bR
my kids cheer on days that all 5 rounds are open! What other "more work" direction gets that reaction?!
A5 FLEXIBLE Groups!!! Creating groups based on a need & not a level. using data to support instructional goals & intervention needs.
And a mouse on the computer...
Reading Mission-sounds like a great hook and provides focus, nice :) https://t.co/L4bTJxOatr
A4 I would sometimes give a reading mission tied to our teaching point. After Read to Someone, they had to be able to answer 1 Q.
Keeping small groups short, 5-7 minutes, allow for conferring and checking in. https://t.co/K99E97lnWn
A4 I would walk around and see what's happening when I could. Sometimes I took one rotation off from small groups to just watch.
Certainly supports differentiation. https://t.co/vNfWf6i1np
A5: D5 promotes independence so I can work with individual kids and small groups
See you next week, Jessy.
A5: it is the perfect compliment due to the amt of rdg involved, the goal setting, the stamina, & choosing the 'right fit'.
Stepping out early but learned so much...as always! Thanks !
A5 Exploring the Daily5 has allowed me 2 expand choice in my art room, enabling Ss 2self select goals based on their needs/interests
A5: Structure for Ss to be met with multiple Xs 4 focused inst. based on assmts, Sprt staff can push in w/o distraction, mon w/ CCP
This is great! https://t.co/PjaXIjA4CT
A4 I would sometimes give a reading mission tied to our teaching point. After Read to Someone, they had to be able to answer 1 Q.
just joining in guys.. Sorry I'm late. On grandbaby duty 😍😍
A5: While Daily 5 is a highly structured system, it is flexible enough to allow for interventions. https://t.co/KwAb7tXXd0
A4 accountability=modeling+trust . For ReadtoSomeone -We model the questions to ask each other, and how to have a good book talk.
Student talk protocols help students learn collaboration. https://t.co/mUes0qPKpo
A4 accountability=modeling+trust . For ReadtoSomeone -We model the questions to ask each other, and how to have a good book talk.
A5: if D5 structure is in place, students can leave for intervention appts. and won't miss core instruction/mini lessons
A5 Exploring the Daily5 model in my art room has given some Ss who never had a voice in art a strong voice in art-opens possibility
A5: D5 is creating a LOVE of reading so evident in my students.
A6 We know what we are doing is successful by looking to the students. Are they meeting their goals? Are they mastering new skills?
A5- All students are working at their level. It also allows for support staff to push in and work with the Ss instead of pull out.
Absolutely. Only lurking, but learning.
Sorry I need to leave . Thanks for the chat! I will check out the archive tomorrow. See you
Every child deserves to read at their own level each day. It is how students grow! https://t.co/y6pQij6s79
A5: Ss are reading books at THIER level. A S may be a grade level behind in text all day but during read to self he's on his turf :)
A5 Ss w/extra services have their rounds ordered. R1 Title service, R2 phonics, R3fluency but this is fluid and changing weekly
You have Qs, now is the time to ask the founder of Daily 5. https://t.co/gnQy4fZaRn
Absolutely. Only lurking, but learning.
A6 Know the D5 model is successful in my art room b/c my conferring is much more targeted/meaningful & more eyes are shining bright
This is one of our biggest learning pieces! then it becomes about the Ss and strategy, instead of the text. https://t.co/3dpEPqlyuW
Students look forward to READING & meeting with partners or groups to share Students recognize & are excited by their growth!
I like that. Something to share my the Ts I work with! Thank you!
so great to see you friend!
Don't limit yourself to 1st graders, our K students thrive within the daily 5 structures! https://t.co/xECqzOZmxh
So excited to hear about it Jenn! https://t.co/0FVgUuJjJy
Hello so glad to see this going on Twitter was just talking about setting up Daily 5 in a first grade classroom.
A6: Ss are growing in their reading!
A6: Kids are engaged in learning, conferring notes and assessments
A6: Students build stamina and perseverance, while sticking with reading and writing.
A6: Student choose materials to read and write that are of interest and choose the order of tasks during the literacy block.
A6: 1) Ss growth 2) Ss actively and successfully engaged in their Rdg and Wrt choice 3) Tchr able to work with ind. and sm groups.
A6: Students know why they are doing each of the tasks and what benefit it has for them.
Curious for those using it. How do you know the writing piece is working? Or word work?
I'm cutting out a little early tonight. I enjoyed learning with you!
Yes! https://t.co/HlrcYHvkB7
A5: it is the perfect compliment due to the amt of rdg involved, the goal setting, the stamina, & choosing the 'right fit'.
I know and use it in 4th grade too.
A6: S progress, but most importantly when I walk in a room that has a low buzz of noise & Ss are engaged.
A6 To me, success is defined when a T can stand back and admire kids working even if it's just a little while it will grow
Conferring with them Quick check during or right after D5
A6: When my students get upset with me for stopping their work for lunch!
Hi Trev! So glad you are here. Add and to your people of who to follow. So smart! https://t.co/wQKDf1yR2R
A5 Exploring the Daily5 has allowed me 2 expand choice in my art room, enabling Ss 2self select goals based on their needs/interests
A5 our 3-teacher team has our walls open. we will often pull Ss w/similar needs to each other's small group.
And what do you find? How are they growing as writers? https://t.co/gzBmxtaPBK
Conferring with them Quick check during or right after D5
A6: by the charted growth in reading levels of each student from beginning of year to end!
More details in writing, continue working on editing and revising
Makes the literacy block fluid! https://t.co/pMw9cJvcAu
A5: if D5 structure is in place, students can leave for intervention appts. and won't miss core instruction/mini lessons
A6 You know it's successful when Ss can independently move along at own level. They become ind. readers and writers with STAMINA!
Innovation in the art room - so impressive always working to learn and grow. https://t.co/eEug0nUj0n
A5 Exploring the Daily5 has allowed me 2 expand choice in my art room, enabling Ss 2self select goals based on their needs/interests
A6- It's working when Ss hate missing it. They love their learning.
And by conferring notes and seeing their growth on tests.
Yes; the low buzz and the visual of Ss doing their thing. Engagement is observable! https://t.co/JbYNbM3WgJ
A6: S progress, but most importantly when I walk in a room that has a low buzz of noise & Ss are engaged.
Daily 5 writing doesn't replace direct writing instruction. Our Ts use D5 AND Thinking Maps writing every day.
I love D5, if you are not using and want help, let me know.
Q7 Working on adding resources all the time - most importantly BOOKS!
I'm looking for creative ways to accomplish listen to reading w/o much tech...
That's it!
https://t.co/0kcq69xwIl
A6 We know what we are doing is successful by looking to the students. Are they meeting their goals? Are they mastering new skills?
A7 I think we all have more resources than we know we just have to be resourceful and think about what we want to create
ipad apps? There are some free/low cost ones. Epic, Reading Rainbow...
A6 I know D5 is successful: Ss WANT to read therefore read a lot more minutes than a basal.
Increasing student awareness of relevance and own readiness--another learner life skill practiced! https://t.co/GlkS5Obquw
A6: Students know why they are doing each of the tasks and what benefit it has for them.
This is fabulous! Our music teacher does this with some units. Way to expand the resources to a different subject!
We love CC Pensive as a resource for implementing the Daily 5
Yes, I thought about that. We just don't have access to ipads all the time.
Thanks Jenn-learning is collaborative and I am fortunate to have great educators to collaborate with!

Works in your Art room...where else can D5 work? https://t.co/5GAnx3ZHMW
A6 Know the D5 model is successful in my art room b/c my conferring is much more targeted/meaningful & more eyes are shining bright
You're welcome! Incorporating D5 has been a journey but my class is so much better for it now :)
A6 with the right book and good fit I have had Ss move from well below bench to above bench in 3 months time!
Have seen it used in PreK and Preschool as well as high school and college courses! https://t.co/r6p6QrLwi2
Don't limit yourself to 1st graders, our K students thrive within the daily 5 structures! https://t.co/xECqzOZmxh
So excited to hear about it Jenn! https://t.co/0FVgUuJjJy
Hello so glad to see this going on Twitter was just talking about setting up Daily 5 in a first grade classroom.
ohh it's beautiful such a great resource.
Old school book and tape sets. can find at garage sales or hit up vet teachers. They may have them stored at home.
My favorite thing to see! https://t.co/VtCYDOKSY8
A6: S progress, but most importantly when I walk in a room that has a low buzz of noise & Ss are engaged.
Possibly. I would just need to track some down.

A6 To me, success is defined when a T can stand back and admire kids working even if it's just a little while it will grow
Glad I caught a bit. Such a valuable chat!
How do I encourage capable readers to move beyond simple readers and looking at pictures in sports books during RtS?
We help students develop independence & begin 2 chart their own course 4 learning Ss value learning & recognize their own growth
A7- Themed Library with MANY books and the confer app. Trying to get LOTs of books in classrooms.
I'll have the transcript 4 seconds after chat ends as long as doesn't beat me to it.
The ultimate sign of success! https://t.co/XhGOqpxnNo
A6: by the charted growth in reading levels of each student from beginning of year to end!
Thank you and ! This hour has been a pleasure :)
