Stepping into Daily 5

A challenge has been set!  
My colleague and I have been asked to present a Daily 5 workshop at a cluster PD day and with two others from our learning team investigating the use of Daily 5 in their classroom for 2014, I thought it might be a good idea have a think about how and why it works.

Students think....
It is great because we read and don't do lots of worksheets.
We are all reading all the time.
Our buddies help us when we get stuck.
I know lots of strategies for when I get stuck.
It is quiet during Daily 5 time because we are all reading.
We get started straight away and build stamina in our reading.
