We added our 4th element to the Daily 5 today: Read to Someone.
Students can choose to read with a buddy as part of their Daily 5 literacy stations. We discussed 4 new ways that buddies can read together. You may want to try these at home!
1) I Read, You Read
One buddy reads a page, the other buddy retells
After each page or two, stop to discuss. Share your thinking about what is happening and what might happen next! If you are reading nonfiction, share what you have learned and what questions you have about the topic.

1) I Read, You Read
- Buddies take turns reading one page at a time.
- One buddy reads a sentence, the other buddy repeats the sentence.
- Buddies read in unison.
