 * __Grade Level__:** 1st Grade
 * __Content of Lesson__:** Counting U.S Coins
 * __Objectives:__**

__**Assessment Criteria and Instruments**:__ Anecdotal Records - Students will demonstrate the ability to work well in small groups. Students will show group participation, respect for group members, and the ability to be flexiable with other students ideas. Students will aslo demonstrate the use of manipulatives while figuring out the math problem. 
 * __Analysis of the data:__** The majority of the students worked considerably well together with the expception of one group. Group 3 had difficulty working together, one student tried to take leadership of the group, while another student wanted to work independently, the other two students were focused on the power struggle between the leader student and the independent student that they themselves didn't accomplish much.


 * __Recommendations for future insturction for the entire class/students sampled:__** My recommendation for future instruction using small groups for this class is to take one individual from each group that worked well together and the student who wanted to work independently from Group 3 and form them as a seperate group. I would then place the leader student in Group 3 with one of the other groups and finally add the other students one to each of the remaining groups. I would difinetly have to find a good fit for the independent student for him to feel comfortable working with others, as well as, finding a good match for the leader student.
