Pieces of evidence

After a little over a week of doing action research... I am finding myself with more evidence than I really know what to do with at this point.  Our project required us to have 10 pieces of evidence and after only 6 days, I have almost 30 pieces of evidence.

So at this point, I will keep reading to the children at lunch time but it is now time to start analyzing and really reflecting on what the evidence collected is showing.  May need to go back and add in a couple more days of observations and reflections but at this point... let the fun of putting together the research begin!
