We are developing an approach to teaching important proportionality-based concepts to first grade students in a way that supports students' future progress in the domain. We consider the proportionality between magnitudes as a basic relationship behind multiple cases, usually described mathematically as ratio or rate. The core of our strategy is…

Chaudhuri, Saswati; Muhonen, Heli; Pakarinen, Eija; Lerkkanen, Marja-Kristiina – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2022
This study investigated teachers' focus of attention and stress in first-grade classrooms. Teachers' (n = 53) focus of attention was recorded in fall and spring with a mobile eye-tracking device, and the teachers reported stress via questionnaires. Correlation analysis was used to examine association between teacher stress (exhaustion, cynicism,…

Royce, Christine Anne – Science and Children, 2017
Engaging students in elementary science is often done within the confines of the classroom. Citizen science projects, however, bring students, families, teachers, and communities together to help scientists with their research. Students become active participants in real research, use their three-dimensional understanding of science, and…

Gross, Thomas J.; Duhon, Gary J.; Shutte, Greg; Rowland, Julie E. – Contemporary School Psychology, 2016
Math fact fluency is critical for understanding complex mathematics. Explicit timing interventions have shown promise for improving math fluency, and they may benefit from being paired with group-oriented contingencies. Further, investigations of independent and dependent group-oriented contingencies would help to identify their relative…

Danish, Joshua A.; Saleh, Asmalina – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2015
We report on a design based research study exploring how the organization of classroom activity impacts early elementary students' critical criteria for evaluating representations in science class. The ability to critique representations produced by others as well as one's own is an important practice when working with representations. Effective…

Cefai, Carmel; Pizzuto, Sue Anne Spiteri – Emotional & Behavioural Difficulties, 2017
The inclusion of the student perspective in helping to promote more effective learning, engagement and positive behaviour is becoming increasingly evident in both educational research and school and classroom practice. Giving students the opportunity to have a meaningful and influential voice enhances both the teaching and learning processes,…

Meyer, Amanda; Schendel, Roland K. – Reading Horizons, 2014
A classroom teacher capitalizes on social learning and reader response theories to challenge her accelerated first-grade readers by implementing literature circles. The aim of this action research was to identify a clear view of "how" to use literature circles with first-graders and "what" might be accomplished. Three…

Foote, Mary Q. – Teacher Education Quarterly, 2009
One professional development approach that has supported teachers in learning about particular children so as to become better teachers of those children is called the Descriptive Review Process (DRP), and involves taking an in-depth look at an individual child (Himley & Carini, 2000). The DRP is a ritualized close look at a particular child…

Sloane, Marie W. – Young Children, 2007
Experts say that good mathematics instruction engages all students as active learners (NAEYC & NCTM 2002). It begins with their current skills and builds new knowledge that is meaningful and appropriate for each child (Baroody 1998). Effective math instruction allows children to develop positive attitudes toward math instead of negative ones…

Using Literacy Booster Groups To Maintain and Extend Reading Recovery Success in the Primary Grades.
Peer reviewedMacKenzie, Karla K. – Reading Teacher, 2001
Describes a comprehensive school literacy program for primary students and looks specifically at one component, Literacy Booster Groups. Notes that in Booster Groups, former Reading Recovery students receive extra support to maintain and extend literacy progress. Concludes that students who were once functioning at the bottom of their class are…

Considers the use of thematic maps in the primary grades as a means to exploring the five themes of geography. Discusses an experiment that evaluated the ability of first grade students in interpreting thematic maps and describes a lesson that introduces thematic maps to primary grade students. (CMK)

Hertzog, Nancy B. – Journal of Advanced Academics, 2007
This study explores how a project-based approach, based on gifted education pedagogy, was implemented in a public school program where the majority of students were from low-income families. The 2 first-grade teachers in this study were able to change their teaching practices to include more strategies commonly found in gifted programs such as…

This study evaluated the extent to which first-grade class size predicted child outcomes and observed classroom processes for 651 children (in separate classrooms). Analyses examined observed child-adult ratios and teacher-reported class sizes. Smaller classrooms showed higher quality instructional and emotional support, although children were…
