Graphing
Graph of the
Day
Graph of the Week
I'll be teaching 1st grade next year (2007-2008), and I plan to create a year-long graph of the day book. The graphs will be posted on the sign in board and students will graph their response on the sheet. At the end of the day, we will add the day's graph to our class book. We will still create larger class graphs every once in awhile that will be put on our classroom wall. I just want to change things up a bit for myself and for the few students that are moving from my K room to the 1st grade room. :) I'll be sure to post pictures of the completed graphs as they are completed! The "daily" graph questions/topics are a result of collaboration between myself and several teachers from the "teachfirstgrade" Yahoo Group including Dana Kumerow, Laura Maxwell, Kimberlee Grant, Betty Connell, and Jennifer Peters. All printables were created by me, and may be downloaded and modified to meet your class' needs. If you should have any additional graph topics, or have created graphs that you'd like to be included on this page, please feel free to send them ("contact" button is at top of page).
