Please help! My school district is adopting a new boxed reading curriculum and it makes me feel anxious what might happen to our daily 5 in the classroom. Please share your experiences or thoughts. Thanks!

I don’t know to what extent you have to use those materials, but here are some ideas:
–Look through the teacher’s manual to get the flow of the lessons to be taught. Compare them with the CAFE menu, and I think you’ll see how you could fit them in to your mini-lessons.
–Integrate the phonics lessons into your word work as appropriate for the kids.
–Use the books (hopefully some leveled readers) to populate your book boxes as appropriate.
Here’s a link to an article about basals: https://www.thedailycafe.com/articles/using-the-basal-with-daily-5-and-cafe

Thank you for your help. We are looking to use Wonders or Journeys.

My district uses Journeys and I have no problem incorporating the Daily 5. We use the lesson for an interactive read aloud and I have been able to align with CAFE. I use some of the other work as word work. The guided readers I use with reading groups. The kids all have their book boxes and they have full choice with the exception if the interactive read aloud that we read and address a skill from cafe and CC. They usually want to read to self or research to learn more about topics in the story. It can work.
