Activity Synthesis
- “¿Cómo podemos usar la primera expresión para encontrar el valor de la segunda?” // “How can we use the first expression to find the value of the second one?” (I knew that \(17 - 7 = 10\), and then I took away 2 more.)
Activity 1: Retomemos “Clasificar y mostrar” (20 minutes)
Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to learn stage 2 of the Sort and Display center. Students sort 20–30 objects into 3 categories and make a picture or bar graph that shows how they sorted. Then, they ask their partner 2 questions that can be answered based on their graph. Students are given an opportunity to sort items, represent how they sorted, and create questions that can be asked about the data in their representation (MP2, MP6).
To connect this center to English Language Arts, students could use books to find a collection. Students look at the cover of a book and choose 3 words or 3 images they think will show up most often in the story and explain why to their partner. Partners record these choices as initial categories. Students then read or look through the book together, explore their prediction and decide together if they want to revise their categories based on what they’ve read. On the second read, they collect and record data for their revised categories. Lastly students create representations based on their data and write 2 “How many?” questions that can be asked about the data in their representations.
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Materials to Copy
- Sort and Display Stage 2 Recording Sheet, Spanish
Required Preparation
Each group of 2 needs a collection of 20–30 objects that could be sorted into at least 3 categories. Examples: pattern blocks, cubes, sets of books, or a combination of blocks, cubes, and counters.
Launch
- Groups of 2
- Give each student a recording sheet.
- “Este centro nuevo se llama ‘Clasificar y mostrar’” // “There is a new center called “Sort and Display.”
- Read directions aloud to students.
- “Escojan la colección que van a clasificar. Clasifíquenla en 3 categorías. Representen los datos en una gráfica que muestre cuántos hay en cada categoría” // “Choose a collection to sort. Sort into 3 categories. Represent the data in a graph that shows how many are in each category.”
- “Después de hacer su representación, formen parejas y háganse preguntas el uno al otro sobre los datos de las gráficas” // “After you’ve made your representation, you and a partner should ask each other questions about the data in your graph.”
Activity
- 12–15 minutes: partner work time
- Monitor for 1–2 graphs to share in the activity synthesis.
Activity Synthesis
- Display student representation.
- “¿Qué preguntas podemos hacer acerca de la representación de esta forma de clasificar?” // “What questions can we ask about the representation of how they sorted?”
