Ideas and websites to focus on

Here is a link to the women who wrote the textbook The Daily Five's website: []

Also, I have forward emails from them as my principal always sends their tip of the week to us. I can forward them to us - if we want. I do not want to send you something you might not want or we might not need. I also have posters we made explaining the five activities.
