Thanks A Lot ~ But I'm Still Not Getting It..
By pg

Your poster was great ~ I just must be dense.

For example, what if Susie needs to work on writing a persuasive paper, but I can't get to her early in the scheduled time for Daily Five because it's not her turn? . .
.

How does she get the paper done? :confused:

I understand that maybe Susie got to conference first on another day ~ but that doesn't help her now.

Even if she was LAST to conference on the day before ~ would she be able to carry over the lessons from the day before? I would worry that some of our kids would not have that skill. :(

On top of that, what about

all the other kids who are needing attention, but on a different schedule? I can't get to everyone at the start of the Daily Five. :confused::confused:

Finally, not to be a killjoy, but we're starting to use Lucy Calkins at our school ~ she's got something different for them to be doing every day... :confused::confused::confused:

It seems like everyone will be on a different schedule ~ and I don't recall how the book suggests attending to instructional needs in the midst of all this.

I know it's a good program ~ NO DOUBT! ;)

I just need help seeing how to manage the instruction.

Thanks ~ AGAIN ~ Lord knows, I need the help!
