Progress Report

I am still observing at Oakland Elementary School on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.  Two weeks ago a taught a lesson on bar graphs to four first grade boys.  The previous day the students made the bar graph with the teacher.  When I taught the students we talked about which category was the most favorite or the least favorite.  I asked them to tell me about their graph.  At the end to review I asked them to tell me how the whole process works becuase I had never made a bar graph before.  Each boy gave me a step and then I asked the boys to do a writing for me about the most favorite and least favorite of their graph.  I had sentence strips to help them.
