- Write the question, "What is your favorite color?" on the board.
- Review the choices on the worksheet, and have students turn a talk to a partner to answer the question using the sentence frame, "My favorite color is ________." If their favorite color is not included on the graph, instruct them to choose their favorite of the available choices.
