Perhaps something along the following lines might help:
y:==RandomReal[NormalDistribution[0,1]];
With[{samplesize==4,numberofsamples==5},
Graphics[Table[Style[Text[ToString[k],{j,y}],Red,Bold],{k,1,samplesize},{j,1,numberofsamples}],PlotRange->{{0.8,numberofsamples+0.2},{-3,3}},Frame->True,GridLines->{Table[j,{j,1,numberofsamples}],{-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3}},FrameLabel->"sample number",FrameTicks->{Table[k,{k,1,numberofsamples}],Automatic}]]
The numbers in red are the values obtained in each sample (sometimes they will appear overwritten}. Instead of numbers you could use points in different colors, but it seems slightly more complicated.
