Daily 5 and Daily 3!

This week in Room 19 we have been learning a new way of doing our maths and reading. 

We have started the Daily 5 and Daily 3. By using these programs we hope to become independent learners, who are able to manage ourselves. 

This week we learnt "Read to Self". This is where we are able to pick a book, poem, reader or big book of our choice. We are allowed to read three books in a session. 

We learnt three ways to read a book:

1. Read the words

2. Read the pictures

3. Retell the story

So far we have done excellent stamina in read to self, we can go 21 minutes without any talking or interrupting. 

In Daily 3 we learnt "Maths by Myself". This is where we need to complete a maths task independently. We learnt how to play boggle.
