Grade 2: Module 1: Extend Stage
Experience
Transitioning to the Extend Stage (Whole Class):
Invite students to bring their Labs notebook, pencil, and clipboard and join you in the
whole group area.
Give students speci c positive feedback for behaviors you have noticed in the Research Lab during previous stages. (Example: “I have seen students staying focused on their task; I have heard very kind and respectful words like ‘please’ and ‘thank you.’”)
Tell students that during the Extend stage, they will be able to share the data they have col- lected about their classroom community.
Tell students they will rst verbally share the results of their survey with another pair of re- searchers. When they share, they should use some speci c words and phrases that will help them communicate their data. Post sentence starters and review with students:
– “Most students in our class _____.”
– “Some students in our class _____.”
– “The least number of students in our class _____.”
– “No students in our class _____.”
Direct students’ attention to the Bar Graph anchor chart and model sharing data using this speci c language. (Examples: “Most students have a dog. Some students have a cat. The fewest number of students have no pets.”)
Invite research partnerships to pair up with another research partnership to form groups of four and to label themselves pair A and pair B.
Invite pair Bs to begin sharing their survey data.
After 2 minutes, refocus whole group and invite pair As to begin sharing their survey data.
Circulate and listen in on student conversations, identifying one or two research partner- ships to share with the whole group.
Refocus students whole group. Invite one or two partnerships to share their survey data.
Tell students that they have just shared their data verbally, and now they are going to learn how to share it visually by making a bar graph.
Refer to the Bar Graph anchor chart as a model for what students will be making.
Point out the various parts of the Bar Graph anchor chart: the title of the graph (The Pets We Have), the title of the x-axis (Type of Pet), the title of the y-axis (number of students), the names of the categories (dog, cat, sh, no pet), and a scale.
Display the data collection sheet and model how to transfer data from the Data Collection Sheet to the bar graph. (This should be fairly direct, as students created a visual similar to a bar graph when lling-in the names of students on the grid.)
Given time, and on other extend days, invite students to transition to workstations and begin working.
