Daily 5 stations

Ideas for each of the daily five rotations

Word work in kindergarten, first grade, or even 2nd can be easy with these Daily 5 activities. Students use a variety of materials to work with words. Whether you are using this for centers, a hands on option for stations, or just some easy games to play with words during the day these ideas are a big hit! Organization is simple, there are NO COPIES to make, and your students will become better readers in no time. #kindergartenclassroom #wordwork #centers

When I was trying to fit in all daily 5 rotations a day I was not getting to the important stuff and I was not having enough time with my students. So, I do one rotation a day for 20-30 minutes. The students do each rotations for daily 5 once a week and they meet with me once a week.

Is anyone in need of some Daily 5 station cards, posters, and anchor charts? Just send me an email! lori@teachingwithloveandlaughter.com

Hey Friends! I have been SO impressed with the comments left on these posts- thank you so much! The winner from the last post is... This is a fun comment- thanks Deb! :) Here we go... Let me first show you how I store my word work: I got this at Target for like $25 I think. I like having the large drawer at the bottom to hold the bigger stuff. I had cutesy labels for each drawer but they kept ripping so my FAB aide from a few years ago made these for me and they are holding up beautifully…
