4. What will I be sharing today? A Survey Report – Students survey their classmates and then write a report explaining and analyzing their results visually and in writing.

5. Originally, what was my driving question?

6. What are my questions now?

7. Your Turn You will have 10 minutes to ask each NCWP participant the same question. Your goal is to learn about our group. You can choose any question you want. – Ex: What is your birth month? – Ex: What is your favorite season? You may ask a follow up question. – Ex: What is your birth month? How do you feel about this? – Ex: What is your favorite season? Why? Write down the person’s name and the answer(s). Include me and yourself.

8. What are your results? – If you wanted to share these results with someone outside of this room, how would you do it? – What would your audience need to know to make sense of your survey results? List five pieces of information you think your audience would need in order to understand your survey.

9. Let’s get graphic! Take a look at your data. How could this information be visually represented? Would a timeline make sense? A map? A pie chart? Something else? How many different answers did you get? Can they all be represented in your graph or would they work better in categories?

10. What led us to become teachers?

12. When Did We Know We Wanted to Teach?

13. Wow, Nicole. How did make those cool graphs?

15. So what did you learn …? About individuals? About us as a group? About humans? About the world? About conducting a survey?...

16. Student Papers—what do you see? You might find… – A portfolio draft – The rubric – A graded draft – A working draft – The original survey – The assignment sheet

17. What are Nicole’s questions now? How can I get students to include more independent research in their writing? How can I connect this in-school assignment to real-world literacy?

18. How is Nicole Feeling Now? Thank you!
