A Teacher’s Lesson Narrative Regarding Statistics Investigation

Abstract

In this paper we analyze the lesson narrative of a mathematics teacher
for the Elementary School. She is a member of a group developing a collaborative
research as part of the ‘Educational Observation Project’, aiming to
investigate mathematical literacy and the teaching education practices of
mathematics teachers. In her narrative, she describes the statistic investigation
process developed with a 1st grade group. There is evidence revealing
the teacher’s hints of learning related to the children’s statistics literacy,
mainly referring to the development of graphical language, as well as evidence
of ownership of literacy practices by the teacher.
