Kindergarten Daily 5 Ch 6 "Word Work"

          

I will be hosting the Chapter 6 "Word Work" linky   

this week! 

As the sisters say, The Daily 5 structure does 

not dictate the best method to use in teaching

reading, writing, spelling or vocabulary work. Whatever 

your preferred method of instruction is...do THAT!

I think the things you can think about while reading 

this part of  Ch 6 is...Word Work allows time for:

1. Experimenting with words for learning and practicing 

a spelling pattern (brainstorm a list of ways you can '

do this).

2. Memorize high frequency words (How often do 

you introduce new words? Do your students have 

their own lists of words  that they can work on? 

How will you keep track of words that they 

already know?

3. Generalize spelling patterns (brainstorm a list of 

ways you can  do this).

4. Adding to our knowledge and curiosity of unique 

and interesting words. (What is the best way 

to do this?)

Other things to think about:

·       What materials do I already have?

·       What materials would I like to get?

·       How will I store them?

·       Where will students work?

 I can't wait to see your posts on Wednesday!
