Daily 5 accountability

If you are like me, you love the concept behind Daily 5.  And although they lay it out really well, and in theory it should work, I still have those students who do not remained focused during Daily 5 times.  I decided I needed to keep them accountable for that time. 

Here is my sample schedule: 

8:25-8:50 - Small Group (1st D5 session) 

8:50 - 9:10 - Whole Group - Reading Mini lesson 

9:10-9:30 - Writing mini lesson  

9:30-9:50 - Small Group (2nd D5 session) 

9:50-10:10 - Spelling (word work) mini lesson 

10:10-10:30 - Small Group (3rd D5 session)

I came up with a packet that lays out our schedule for each day of the week, what I want each group to do (I choose for them - I've done it where I let them choose as well), and "artifact" sheets for the various D5 options.  Check it out here!

Hope you found this helpful!
