Daily Five, The: Fostering Literacy in the Elementary Grades: 2nd Ed.

This comprehensive resource is created for educators looking for a step-by-step approach to establishing and sustaining a Daily 5 literacy program in the classroom.

This second edition of the resource is written specifically for teachers and may be of particular interest to educators at the elementary level. The resource is appropriate as a reference to help develop a year-long program for the classroom that promotes student growth, also supporting a variety of learning needs with its many ideas for differentiation of instruction.
