I'm the only K teacher at my school so I've been figuring out things as I go! This book study is exactly what I needed! I'm a visual person so I was wondering if you have pictures of your anchor charts...I would love to get ideas on how mine should look!

I am going from being a 3rd grade teacher to working as an Instructional Facilitator in a K-2 school. I will be blog stalking lots of my K friends :) I love what I have read of the Daily Five so far. I have used the Reading Workshop in my classroom for many years and this seems to make it manageable in primary grades<br /><br /><a href="emhaywood.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Twins, Teaching and Tacos.</a>Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01565364518531380798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243411864308451654.post-40717679373950820622012-06-21T12:18:18.217-04:002012-06-21T12:18:18.217-04:00Caitlin, wonderful post and questions outlining ch...Caitlin, wonderful post and questions outlining chapter two.

I worry about what they will choose as well. You probably need to look at the CAFE book that is the companion to Daily 5 because they have a CD that has forms for keeping track of this stuff in a Pensieve. http://www.thedailycafe.com/public/department73.cfm. I wasn't sure about it when I started, but now I think it's a must. I am working this summer on developing a Pensieve on my iPad. I'll keep you posted on that.<br /><br />✰ Kimberley ✰<br /><a href="http://1stinmaine.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">First in Maine</a>Kimberley Moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11944774091932084680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243411864308451654.post-69992373267027195372012-06-21T07:02:54.213-04:002012-06-21T07:02:54.213-04:00Your daily agenda looks so colorful, bright, and h...Your daily agenda looks so colorful, bright, and happy! I do need to do better with that one!<br /><br />I love anchor charts! I also thought it was great that you ask students to tell some type of goal before reading... like fill out the L in the KWL chart. Great way to keep them focused and tuned in.Learning with Mrs. Brinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16561058807426701612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243411864308451654.post-27125973536202784992012-06-21T00:41:24.884-04:002012-06-21T00:41:24.884-04:00I think sending postcards home is a great way to k...I think sending postcards home is a great way to kick off the year with a new class and am planning to do so myself in a few months...what a great treat for my new kiddos.<br /><br />I'm also going to encourage them (with adult help, of course) to send me a greeting, as well, to our school address and find a way to display them.<br /><br />Thanks for hosting this week, looking forward to more great discussion for Chapter 3!The Tot School Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10209918849625549041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243411864308451654.post-36685531641236292332012-06-20T22:04:37.081-04:002012-06-20T22:04:37.081-04:00Thanks soo much for hosting!

I love the ideas that are being shared! <br /><br />I know you said you couldnt do a getting to know you post card but could you do a happy your in our class after the first week highlighting something awesome that kiddo is doing so far? Just a thought everyone LVOES a happy gram home!!<br /><br />I was just at a conference and listened to the keynote speaker- he mentioned stating the purpose and calling on the students to hold that to retell you WHY they are working on "said" skill. What are you going to learn he would ask them. We are going to learn _________. He said that it would take a bit but then if he forgot the kids were remind him. LOVE that! I know I dont do that often enough-- how can the students be responsible if I dont attach it to sometime that he / she can understand. <br /><br />I love the idea of learning from others. I know that I give options but I am also a control spaz and know that there is always room for improvement! I cant wait to challenge myself to see how far the students & I can go together this coming year!<br /><br />Looking forward to chapter 3!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts w/ others!<br /><br />Sarah<br />shetrick@gmail.comSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06208924625156584236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243411864308451654.post-82616157982549455442012-06-20T12:04:26.446-04:002012-06-20T12:04:26.446-04:00Great ideas!
