Daily 5 and Grades

I just started using the Daily 5 and am struggling to try to fit in everything.


I don't want to worksheet my kids to death, but there are a few worksheets from our reading series that I really feel is valuable - like the comprehension ones.


Do any of you use any worksheets and if so when do the kids complete them?


Also do you still have a main reading story for your class that you test over? When do you work on that story? If you don't have a main story where do you get any grades.


I know this is a lot of questions, but I want to make sure that I am doing it correctly from the start!
