In Language Arts, we are launching the Daily Five Program and we are currently learning how best to read to ourselves.  The kids have decided that good readers use whisper voices or read in their heads, stay in one place, keep their eyes on their books and continue reading for a sustained period of time.  As the days progress, we will be working on our stamina and reading for a sustained period of time.  We will work towards good reading for longer and longer periods of time to help our kids become better readers.
