Read to Someone

This week, we started our second focus area of Daily 5, "Read to Someone". We have worked on "Read to Self" for several weeks. Read to Self is essentially our 100 Book Challenge Program. During Read to Self, our young readers read books on their level independently. Read to Someone is where two students read together. This is a very enjoyable time for our boys and girls as they have the opportunity to read to someone and share thoughts on their favorite books.
Here's a few pictures of our "Elbow to Elbow, Knee to Knee" time!

 
Parker helped me model "Elbow to Elbow, Knee to Knee (EEKK)"
Note: We do not normally sit on tables, this was a special exception so that everyone could see. :)


 
Here are our other friends practicing EEKK during Reading to Someone time!

  1. Way to go boys and girls! I am so glad to see you practicing your EEKK read to someone procedures. Believe it or not you already look like first graders. Are you still building stamina while you are reading?
    Keep up the good work!

  2. I love seeing how much you guys are enjoying read to someone. It is so much fun to read with a buddy! I bet everyone loved seeing Mrs. Daniel model EEKK by sitting on the tables. You guys are so lucky to have such a wonderful teacher! Keep up the great work guys!
