What is the Daily 5 The Daily 5 develops from the research and
creativity of teachers sisters: Gail Boushey and Joan Moser .
It’s a 5 components framework to help developing literacy skills:
1. Read to Self2. Read to Someone3. Listen to Reading4. Work on Writing, and 5. Word Work/ Spelling.

The components of the Daily 5:
◦ help teachers keep students focused on literacy.
◦ gives students the chance to be independent in their choices and have some ownership over their education.
How it works?

Children start by learning to ‘pick’ a book1. I choose a book.2. Purpose – Why do I want to read it?3. Interest – Does it interest me?4. Comprehend – Am I understanding what I am reading?5. Know – I know most of the words.
I PICK

The first component of the Daily 5 is Read to Self, or independent reading.
Students learn to choose books that are “good fit”; that is books that are not too hard, nor too easy.
It’s also important that students spend time
reading independently books that are of interest to them.
1. Read to Self

Read to Someone is when a pair of students share reading time with each other.
One student will read while the other checks for understanding.
2. Read to Someone

A listening station in an elementary classroom is a must. It allows children the chance to listen to reading and hear what fluent reading sounds like.
It also allows students the opportunity to hear new vocabulary and to be exposed to a variety of genres.
3. Listen to Reading

Writing is one of the most important components of literacy development; thus the Daily 5 writing offer children the opportunity to practice these skills regularly.
Writing might consist of writing in a journal or drawing and labeling a picture story.
4. Work on Writing

Word Work consists of developing spelling and language skills.
Students might be using:◦ letters and flash cards to make words◦ play -dough or stamps to review spelling
words◦ magnetic letters to spell target words,
etc
5. Word Work

One of the most important benefits of Daily 5 is that teaches students to become independent and to take responsibility for their own learning.
Using Daily 5 teachers can address the specific needs of students by working with them in small groups.
Teachers also have the opportunity to have regular reading conferences with individual students.
Why Daily 5

Teachers keep record of students’ progress in the conferring notebook, which “the sisters” refer to as the Pensieve.
Keeping records is an integral part of the teacher’s daily work with children.
In the “Pensieve” are included the assessments’ data, conferring sheet, calendar and guided group plans. It helps keep teachers’ time organized, focused and intentional.
It makes it easy for students to be participants in their goal setting and progress monitoring.

Comprehension Accuracy Fluency, and Expanding Vocabulary.

The system includes:◦ goal-setting with students in individual conferences,
◦ posting of goals on a whole-class board,◦ developing small group instruction based on clusters
of students with similar goals, and ◦ targeting whole-class instruction based on emerging
student needs and fine tuning one- on- one conferring.
