I also went to "google" and had a hard time finding the information that you
mentioned about "The Daily 5" I have read most of the book and why I think
it is so great is b/c it teaches you how to train students to go through
literacy centers - that is how I plan on using it. I am not sure what you
mean by something is missing- it is not what you teach so much as training
your students so you can teach (that is what I am taking from it). I am not
comfortable using their complete framework for reading workshop, but that is
ok for me.
Through my search I did find the followin quote (it was on the 2 sisters
website however- the authors of the daily 5- but it was accompanied by a
picutre of the ladies with Mr. Allington
Exhilaration
"I love the Daily 5, it does what almost no other book ever does and that is
it gets right down to nitty gritty. Much of what you describe is what we saw
in exemplary teacher classrooms. And your description of how to attain it
fits well in the study that was never written up on the first week of school
in exemplary classrooms."
Congratulations!

Google Richard Allington and The Daily 5. He has a lot to say about the
missing pillars that is well worth considering. This is not an argument
AGAINST the daily 5, but simply a caution that much is missing.
