As I mentioned last time, my students were absolute wizards at creating graphs. They could create a bar graph that would put some adults to shame.  But, asking them what the data meant was a totally different story. Easy STEM Data Collection for Teachers and Students is a helpful way to both collect data to help inform your future lessons for kids, but it’s also a way for kids to learn to collect and use data too.
So how do you get students to write thoughtfully about their data? Â I started by having students answer a couple of key questions to help them focus on writing about the right kind of information. Â Then, I gave them STEM Sentence Starters to help them form the right kind of sentences. Â Providing this scaffolding really helped and once they got the hang of it, they began writing great paragraphs to support their killer graphs.
