One of my favorite parts of the day is our Daily 5 time-seriously, what did I ever do before I read the Daily 5 book! I would literally spend HOURS and HOURS and HOURS getting centers ready each week, and to be honest, it was more of a busy work time for my kids so I could pull my reading groups. No fun for anyone involved!
I’ve been doing Daily 5 in my classroom for the last couple of years and still feel like I’m trying to figure out what works best for me and my class each year. Since starting this “program” I have only had time to have 3 rotations each day- wouldn’t it be wonderful to have more hours in the day!? When I taught 1st grade I decided where my kids went each day. I just didn’t feel comfortable giving them the responsibility of deciding where they were going to go each rotation. But, when I moved up to 2nd grade I decided to give it a try. The class that I did this with was AMAZING, so that definitely helped-BUT, it truly is amazing how resonsible kids can be when they have clear expectations and are given some choice!
In order to let my students choose where they went, I knew that I needed to come up with a creative way to manage each rotation. I saw something like this on Pinterest, and made it work in my own classroom. I’ve used this for the last 2 years and absolutely LOVE it! Super fast, easy and the best part-CHEAP!
I used pizza pans from the dollar store and hot glued them to the wall. Each “station” has a separate pizza pan that is labeled with all of the Daily 5 stations. I keep all of my students’ names on the rectangular cookie sheet at the end of the pizza pans. I just typed up their names and used small magnets to stick them on (I suggest laminating their names first!). At the beginning of Daily 5, my students simply move their names from the cookie sheet to the pizza pan that they wish to go to first! We definitely didn’t just jump right into this, there was A LOT of practice and modeling involved! In order to transition smoothly, my students simply move their names from one pan to another. We set up expectations at the very beginning with how many students can attend each station at a time, and I’ve honestly never had any major issues! We only have 3 computers in my classroom, so they know that only 3 students can attend “Listen to Reading” at a time. After we have completed all 3 rotations, they move their names back to the cookie sheet- EASY!
