=Welcome to The Daily Five for Literacy!=

If you feel worn down from the energy to direct students on a daily basis, then the Daily Five for Literacy by Gail Boushey and Joan Moser is for you. Based upon literacy and motivational research, they created this **structure** which has been used in classrooms for a decade and shared with countless teachers throughout the United States.

The Daily Five is are literacy tasks of reading to self, reading with someone, writng, word work and listening to reading. These tasks are done on a daily basis while the teacher meets with small groups or individuals.

Explicit modeling, practice and reflecting take place during each part to prepare a foundation for a year of meaningful content based upon the data of the students.

You will see the compilation of lessons / structures used over the course of this school year 2012-13.
