Title: A daily routine for reading and writing


1
  • A daily routine for reading and writing

2
So what is The Daily 5 thing all about?
  • First of all, The Daily 5 will become a big part
    of your day.
  • It will allow you to do meaningful work
    independently.
  • The Daily 5 includes Read-to-Self,
    Read-to-Someone, Listen-to-Reading, Writing, and
    Word Work (you will learn more about those a bit
    later).
  • Now lets dig more into The Daily 5

3
  • The Daily 5 will help establish
  • A sense of trust
  • A freedom for choice
  • A sense of community
  • A sense of urgency
  • Stamina
  • Routines for Independence

4
The Daily 5 will help establish A Sense of
TRUST
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • What is trust?
  • Share a time when someone trusted you.
  • How did it make you feel?

5
A Sense of TRUST
  • In terms of The Daily 5, meaningful learning will
    require mutual trust and respect between the
    teacher and you, the student.
  • Each of you is valuable and unique and worthy of
    respect and caring.
  • It is trust that will allow you to become
    independent learners.
  • It is trust that will allow the teacher to focus
    energy on teaching, not managing behaviors.

6
The Daily Five will establish A Freedom for
CHOICE
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • Do you like having choices?
  • Think of your favorite restaurant or radio
    station.
  • Share a time when you have had choices. What did
    you choose? What did you like about having a
    choice?

7
A Freedom for Choice
  • We all know and realize that we need and love
    structure and routine. These are very much needed
    in the classroom.
  • In terms of The Daily 5, you will have a choice
    in your learning. You will ask yourself questions
    such as What are my goals in reading and
    writing?, What will I do first?, Whom will I
    choose to work with?, What will I accomplish?,
    and What was I working on yesterday that I want
    to continue today?.
  • Purpose Choice MOTIVATION!
  • It is choice that will motivate you and put you
    in charge of your own learning!

8
The Daily Five will establish A sense of
community
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • What does the word community mean?
  • How do you build community in the classroom?

9
A Sense of Community
  • What we experience together will weave the
    tapestry that will create an environment of
    learning and caring.
  • A sense of community provides everyone with
    ownership to hold others accountable for
    behaviors, effort, learning, order, and kindness.
  • In terms of The Daily 5, everyone rejoices in
    each others progress. If a classmate is
    disrupting others during work time, the community
    will join together to encourage, support, and
    hold the person accountable for his or her
    learning behavior.

10
The Daily Five will establish A sense of
Urgency
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • What does the word urgent mean?
  • Share a time when you have had to use urgency.

11
A Sense of Urgency
  • In terms of The Daily 5, creating urgency in the
    classroom establishes a community where every
    moment of learning is important.
  • There is a reason why you do certain tasks, and
    you will be taught why you do things. An
    example of why is something like this. Why do
    we read? Well research says that reading each
    day is the best way to become a better reader-
    its as simple as that!
  • When a person understands the reason for a task,
    it motivates that person to persevere.

12
The Daily Five will establish Stamina
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • What does the word stamina mean?
  • How do you build up stamina?

13
Stamina
  • In terms of The Daily 5, you will need to build
    up stamina in order to be successful readers and
    writers. Just think of the process as a runner
    training for a marathon.
  • If you dont have the stamina to read for thirty
    minutes, you will not be successful. In fact, you
    may even become frustrated and lose motivation to
    succeed.
  • Therefore, it is important that you are taught
    how to be successful at each of the five key
    components of The Daily 5.

14
The Daily Five will establish Routines for
Independence
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • Do you like being independent?
  • Share a time when youve been independent
  • and have been successful.

15
Routines for Independence
  • In terms of The Daily 5, once you understand what
    is expected of you, have practiced strategies,
    and have built up your stamina, it is time to
    show-off your independence!
  • To be successful with The Daily 5, it is
    important that you show that you can make
    decisions on your own and monitor yourself
    regarding your own progress.
  • By showing independence, you will allow your
    teacher to work with students in small groups (in
    other words, its your chance to show your
    teacher that you can learn on your own!).

16
  • Other Daily 5 Essentials
  • Establishing a Gathering Place
  • Finding Good-Fit Books
  • Book Boxes
  • Anchor Charts
  • Signals Check-in
  • Repeated Practice

17
Establishing a Gathering Place
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • Believe it or not, you are never too old to sit
    on the floor and learn. A gathering place is an
    open space large enough for the whole class to
    come together. Where might be the best place for
    this in our room?
  • Now, lets test out our gathering place
  • How should you sit? What should be some
    guidelines to follow to make sure learning takes
    place?

18
Finding Good-Fit Books
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • How do you know a book is the right book for
    you?
  • How do you know the book isnt too difficult for
    you?
  • One of the most important things to do to become
    a better reader is to read good-fit books.
  • You should look for a good-fit book in five
    ways using the acronym, I PICK.

19
I PICK
  • I answers the question
  • What book should I choose?
  • Finding a book that is a great fit
  • for you will give you the best opportunity for
    success!

20
I PICK
Because of Winn Dixie
Sharks
  • P answers the question
  • What is my purpose for
  • wanting to read the book?
  • You should have a purpose when choosing a
    good-fit book. Is the purpose for research?
  • Or, are you simply reading for some fun?

21
I PICK
  • I answers the question
  • What sort of book am
  • I interested in reading?
  • Do you want a book like the one you just
    finished? Do you want a mystery? Or are you more
    interested in learning about sports? Whatever the
    book, make
  • sure it is of interest to you.

22
I PICK
  • C answers the question
  • Do I comprehend the
  • book that I chose?
  • Whatever book you choose, make sure that you can
    comprehend it. If you find yourself asking a lot
    of questions and things are sort of confusing,
    then maybe the book isnt a good-fit book.

23
I PICK
  • K answers the question
  • Do I know the words?
  • Whatever book you choose, make sure that you can
    understand the words. You should know most of the
    words that you read. If you dont, then the book
    is not a good-fit book.

24
Genres
  • To help in choosing a good-fit book, lets
    investigate genres
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • What is a genre?

25
What does genre mean?
  • A genre is a type of literature. For example
    the realistic
  • fiction genre contains books about events that
    could happen
  • today with realistic people as the main
    characters.
  • Think-Pair-Share
  • What are some other types
  • of genres that you know?

26
Different Genres in Literature
  • Take a look around the room and find the
    classroom library
  • or take a walk down the hall to the school one.
    What kind of books
  • do you see? How are the books separated? Are they
    separated by genres?

Science Fiction
Fantasy
Realistic Fiction
Non Fiction
Historical Fiction
Myths
27
Historical Fiction
  • Historical Fiction stories are about a certain
    time period in the past. The setting is
    described in detail, the characters are
    believable, and there is a main problem that the
    characters must overcome. The main clue is that
    some of the characters in the story were not
    real people and did not actually exist.
  • Examples Little House books, The Sign of the
    Beaver, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Al Capone
    Does My Shirts

28
Mystery
  • Mysteries are stories that have something to
    solve. There are usually clues that people
    uncover that lead to the answer to the mystery.
  • Examples are The 39 Clues Series, Sherlock
    Holmes, Encyclopedia Brown, The Hardy Boys

29
Horror/Suspense
  • Horror or suspense stories often contain objects
    or creatures that are not real (ghosts, talking
    toys, ) that are used to scare the reader.
  • Examples are Goosebumps, Fear Street, The Old
    Willis Place

30
Fantasy
  • Fantasy stories are created by altering one or
    more characteristics of reality.
  • Entire new worlds may be created or characters
    may have extraordinary experiences in the real
    world. Characters may be extra large or extremely
    tiny (Gullivers Travels).
  • Other Examples
  • Preposterous Characters and Situations
  • James and the Giant Peach
  • Talking Animals
  • Stuart Little
  • Living Toys
  • Winnie the Pooh
  • Strange and Curious Worlds
  • The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe
  • Time Warps
  • When You Reach Me

31
Realistic Fiction
  • Realistic Fiction contains everything in a
    realistic story and is consistent with the lives
    of real people in our world.
  • The events in the story could have happened. The
    characters and the setting seem real, and the
    plot focuses on everyday problems and personal
    relationships.
  • Examples Hatchet, Dear Mr. Henshaw, Frindle

32
Science Fiction
  • The science fiction genre deals with probable
    events, is usually set in another world, and is
    concerned with technological advances.
  • Themes are the struggle between good and evil,
    the hope for one peaceful world, and the
    brotherhood of man, space adventure, space
    flight, and space vehicles are included in many
    science fiction books.
  • Examples Star Wars, Star Trek, Animorphs,
    Deltora Quest

33
Fairytales
  • Fairytales are full of magic--giants, witches,
    magical tablecloths, beans, and sticks--all sorts
    of magic.
  • These are set in a fantasy land, involve upper
    class characters--princes, princesses, kings, and
    queens, and frequently rely on the pattern of
    three.
  • The conflict portrayed is generally life and
    death. At the end the fortunes of the lowly,
    childlike, good protagonist and the adult-like,
    evil, antagonist are usually. Castles, journeys,
    mysteries, huts, woods, rivers, bridges, a
    talking or otherwise helpful animal frequently
    appear.
  • Examples of traditional fairytales are
    Cinderella, Snow White, Jack and the Beanstalk.

34
Myths
  • Myths are stories about gods and are sacred
    stories, which supply "models for human behavior"
    and "give meaning and value to life.
  • Western civilization has been strongly shaped by
    Greek, Roman, Norse, Celtic, and Judeo-Christian
    mythologies. Today we also possess African,
    Asian, and Native American mythologies, which
    attempt to explain the creation, divinity,
    religion, human nature, features of the natural
    world, and death.
  • Example Percy Jackson The Olympians The
    Lightning Thief

35
Non Fiction
  • Non-fiction books contain factual information
    about a person, place, event, animal, and/or
    thing.
  • Some examples of nonfiction are biographies,
    autobiographies, and information books about
    certain topics.
  • Examples Dinosaurs, Volcanoes

36
Biography
  • Biographies tell the story of an individuals
    life. The book is written by another person.
  • The books discuss the persons life and
    achievements. All the facts in the book are
    accurate and true.
  • Examples Young Abigail Adams, Eleanor Roosevelt,
    George Washington

37
Autobiography
  • Autobiographies are stories that are written by
    someone about his/her own life.
  • An example is Small Steps The Year I Got Polio
    by Peg Kehret

38
I PICK at Work
Think-Pair-Share Challenge Now, Ill give you a
short quiz with a partner, discuss what the
acronym I PICK stands for. Can you get all of
the letters correct? I bet you cant!!!!
I PICK Challenge Now, lets try out the I
PICK strategy for yourself in your classroom or
the library.
39
Setting up Book Boxes
  • Now that youve decided on a few good-fit
    books, you should put these books in a place
    where you can easily access them.
  • Your teacher will show you where to put your
    books

40
Creating Anchor Charts
  • As we learn each component of The Daily 5, we
    will come together and make an anchor chart (or
    I chart for Independence).
  • On each chart, you will be asked to come up with
    learning behaviors and expectations for you and
    your teacher.
  • Now, lets see who can model these behavior

41
Signals and Check-in
  • Your teacher will have a signal to get your
    attention.
  • Maybe its a yell, a bell, or a siren. Whatever
    it is, you should adhere to the signal. Lets try
    it
  • To be self-reflective, you will be asked to give
    a thumbs-up or a thumbs-sideways in regards to
    how you did.

42
Muscle Memory Repeated Practice
  • Dont be surprised if we go over and over and
    over some of the expectations for the components
    of The Daily 5.
  • The reason we do this is to train your muscles to
    do the right thing.
  • To be successful, well follow 10 steps to muscle
    memory

43
Muscle Memory 10 Steps
  • Identify what is to be taught.
  • Set a purpose and a sense of urgency
  • Brainstorm behaviors using I chart.

  • Everyone model and build stamina (3 minutes).
  • Independent work (teacher stays out of the way).
  • Quiet signal to come back to group.
  • Group check-in (How did you do?).
  • Repeat steps 1-9.
