Sorting, graphing and writing oh my!

**In this post you see the beginning of a sorting and graphing activity. They were given a pile of candy and they had to sort it by whichever attribute their group decided and then graph the data.

**During class I let the students work independently wherever they feel the most comfortable. During writing this is a powerful time for them. It is always interesting to me to see how the students work best. Some stay st their seats, some need to lay in the floor and some just need a more comfortable chair! :)

**I think that one of the most amazing happenings during the first quarter was during our power typing time in the library. During this time I witnessed almost every student focused and putting so much effort forth to type the final copies of their passion projects.
