Daily 5 and CAFE

The Daily 5 Tasks: Creating a Sense of Urgency
- Read to Self The best way to become a better reader is to practice each day with “Good Fit” books that you have selected yourself. It’s Fun!
- Work on Writing Just like reading the best way to become a better writer is to write each day. It’s Fun!
- Read to Someone Partner reading provides opportunities to practice strategies, improve fluency, check for understanding, and hear your own voice while sharing in the learning community.
- Word Work Expanded vocabulary leads to greater fluency in reading, therefore increasing comprehension. Becoming more proficient as a speller leads to writing fluency and the ability to get your ideas down on paper.
- Listen to Reading Just Hearing fluent and expressive reading of good literature expands your vocabulary; helps build your stamina and will make you a better reader.
