" Read to Self " part of the "Daily 5."



We decided to take a short video to show what happens in our classroom everyday during "Daily 5". Read to Self is the first of the 5 components of "Daily 5". We know that the most important thing we can do to become better readers who love to read is to spend lots of time practicing reading. You notice we always refer to our "I" anchor chart, reinforcing the desired behaviours to make "Read to Self " a success to all. We also want to remember "Why" we are doing it, to become better readers. It is truly amazing when you sit in with us, and see 17 students totally engaged in the reading process, Fantastic!!!!

Hello boys and girls,
Looks like you are doing very well with Read to Self. We are practicing this in our class in BC, Canada. Good luck and have a great weekend.
