Round 1: Guiding Question • I am repeatedly reminding individuals and groups of students what to do for the math transition • What are the teachers and students doing during the math transition?
Round 1: Data Collection • Kept track of the time specific tasks (giving directions, getting seated, planners ready, and planners marked) took for students and me in the transition
Round 2: Guiding Question • I noticed I was feeling more anxious about repeatedly reminding individuals and groups of students what to do for the math transition • What are teachers and students doing during the math transition?
Round 2: Data Collection • Video recording to track what students and I do during the transition

Round 3: Guiding Question • I realized getting through planners can take up a lot of time if we do not get them started right away. I also realized that I could participate in the transition process differently • What does a smooth transition to math look like?
Round 3: Data Collection • Video recording to track what students and I do during the math transition
Round 3: Data Collection • Video recording to track what students and I do during the math transition
Conclusions • When teachers participate more directly in the learning process it provides support for students to be more successful. • When teachers make a personal connection to students they are able to more clearly convey their expectations.
