Reflections of 2015

December 31, 2015 By Mary Amoson Leave a Comment

Happy New Year's Eve 2015! I don't know about you, but 2015 was CrAzY for us in The Amoson House. We thought we knew how 2015 was going to go... but we actually went on a wild ride. I changed schools and therefore my job has changed a lot. Here I am with the U-Haul moving my classroom. And here is the U-Haul which is very full. But here is how organized all my things actually … [Read more...]

Why Do I “Daily 5”

September 6, 2015 By Mary Amoson 1 Comment

Why Do I Daily 5? There are so many good ways,  if not great ways, to teach reading skills to little ones. When I was fresh out of college, I had no clue how to actually teach little ones to read. My first year in K was an eye opener. Teaching reading skills to little ones is a HUGE component of kindergarten. Ideally, we want to teach our students a love of reading and a passion to read … [Read more...]

Daily 5 Necklaces

March 20, 2015 By Mary Amoson 4 Comments

You asked... you guys wanted to know about my idea to use self management necklaces. This is a management tool I give my students to empower them to take ownership of their learning during literacy time. Game on. This idea is a good one. It is working wonderfully with my class. First, how do I use a classroom management necklace? I use these self management necklaces for free choices in … [Read more...]

Daily 5 {Update} Choice Board

October 18, 2014 By Mary Amoson 20 Comments

October is here...  and so is choice board time for our Daily 5 time.   I spend the first chunk of time teaching my class in small groups. We talk about how to move from group to group. Then, we work on learning how to completely activities independently. We learn how to learn. Slowly I give them a little less play and a lot more routines. I feel them out and learn what they need … [Read more...]

September 14, 2014 By Mary Amoson 2 Comments

I think I am beginning to see the light... we are making READ TO SELF progress... Last week, we read to ourselves for 5 minutes... TWICE! WOO HOO.

The Daily 5 Second Edition {Chapter 8}

July 4, 2014 By Mary Amoson 4 Comments

This is THE chapter I couldn't wait to get to. I mean, if we are training our little ones to be independent during reading, why not during math as well? Math is the KEY time to practice and work. I know I personally NEED to practice math skills many times to master them. {Flashback to Calculus in High School.  I knew I was the dumbest person in the room... BUT I had to get the ideas … [Read more...]

Chapters 5 & 6 {The Daily 5 Book Study:The Second Edition}

June 26, 2014 By Mary Amoson Leave a Comment

Today we get to talk about the next two chapters in our Daily 5 book study. I am slightly late in the game, so I didn't elaborate too much... Whenever you start Daily 5, you start by teaching your students HOW to read to themselves. Without the ability to read to themselves with stamina, the system does not work as strong. "Teaching children how to read on their own for extended periods … [Read more...]
