Mrs. Staten's first grade class has been working on collecting data and organizing it into categories to be able to understand how to create and interpret different types of graphs. This project included taking different types of buttons and working in small groups to organize them into categories by size, color, texture, shape, thickness, shades of colors, etc. After that, students took their knowledge from their hands-on experience and created and analyzed different types of graphs: tally graphs, bar graphs, and picture graphs. #OHEistheplacetobe
