Grade 2 Collecting Data

One of the research skills grade 2 has been working on is collecting data. We have been collecting data in our graphing unit in math. Students worked in groups to come up with questions to survey their classmates. They will next work on graphing the data they collected. 

In our inquiry unit, students have been collecting information about migration. We have looked at books and have decided to interview people to find out more. We made our interview questions and will continue to see what we can find out. We started by interviewing classmates and grade 3 students. Next we will interview parents and teachers. As we interview others, we our focusing on our listening skills so that we can collect accurate information and to show respect to others.

Here are some pictures of our interviews of grade 3 students.

We continue to buddy read with the preschool class. Grade 2 students are getting better at knowing how to engage the little ones while reading :)
