Learning Targets for Today

• I can review the I-Charts for Word Work (materials set up, use, and clean up)

• I can review the Focus Lessons for Launching Word Work. (see p. 89 in Daily 5 book)

• I can discuss with my PLC what the content and products/processes of Word Work will be.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What materials are used? • What words are practiced? • Is this my spelling program? • What about vocabulary? • When are new words introduced and

practiced? ….just to name a few

Important to Remember….

• Daily 5™ is the foundation of our literacy block upon which everything is built. • It has no "content" or lesson plans, it is simply a structure for

dispersing instruction and practice time.

• Daily 5™ focuses on teaching the behaviors of reading, writing, listening and manipulating words.– Word Work is a system for teaching children how to

practice words, so your spelling, sight/dolch words, vocabulary, and phonics programs can be infused into the structure seamlessly.

Where to Begin….• Create an I-Chart:

– Student Expectations– Teacher Expectations– Why We Work on Words

• Model Expectations:– Incorrect/Correct– Getting and Returning Materials (Anchor Charts)

• Build Stamina:– Place students in small groups and have them practice– Base appropriate amount of time according to independence and grade

levels• Review I-Chart:

– Reconvene for self and group reflections

Example of Implementation:Day One - * Introduce optional materials and their locations to students.

* Brainstorm I chart of how to set up materials and how to work with them independently* Model finding the materials, materials placement in the room, and setup of materials* Brainstorm chart of how to clean up* Model materials placement in the room, setup, and cleanup of the materials

Day Two - * Model and practice materials setup, materials placement, and cleanup of materials * Brainstorm I chart – “How to Use Materials” * Model and practice student behaviors of how to use materials * Continue building stamina of working with materials, adding 1 – 2 minutes each day

Other focus lessons for Word Work might include the following:• Word sorts

• Adding words to their collection

• Practicing basic words most often misspelled

• Add words to word study notebook that relate to the strategy taught that day

• List words that belong to a pattern and add to word study notebook

Each day add a few more minutes until students are independently working with these materials for the desired amount of time.
