"Over the summer I read the CAFE book and this year have added the CAFE components to the Daily 5."
STACIE, thanks for your post. I recently had the opportunity to observe in two CAFE classrooms where there is a 90-min. literacy block. I was impressed with the management and how the students knew what the expectations were in each rotation. Here's my concern, and it's really for those of youout there who are Columbia trained and also know Daily 5/CAFE: With students changing stations every 22 minutes or so after the minilesson, Where's the sustained engagement with 'just right' text? Where's the conferring at the heart of the workshop? I would so love feedback from Columbia folks, and if it is more appropriate to contact me directly rather than through this list serve, please do. Thanks for all your input and support everyone.

Do you see the benefit for grades 3-5? Also, any resources that you have for the upper grades would be helpful. I have heard from some teachers they feel there is no accountability for the students as they move from each station. Any thoughts?

That said, D5 isn't solely and directly responsible for these changes, but rather provides the framework or format which allows a balanced program to succeed" Sent from my iPad On May 3, 2012, at 8:38 PM, "Kathleen Robertson" <kan...@telus.net> wrote: > Hello everyone > > Many primary teachers in our school are moving to the daily five.
