Using Slow Reveal Graphs in a Math Class

Using Slow Reveal Graphs in a Math Class

A slow reveal graph is a teaching tool that starts with a numberless graph (or map, diagram, etc.) without labels. As the class notices and wonders about the graph, the teacher slowly reveals the original text and numbers until the class is looking at the complete original graph. The process allows students and teachers to focus on specific parts of the graph and do a close reading and analysis. Using the slow reveal routine allows us to engage every student, both those that are fast and those who are slower and deeper thinkers, at the same time. Each step draws out student thinking and allows teachers to learn what students know, and not just what they know about graph reading.
