Instead of using surveys this year to get to know your students, try incorporating glyphs into your classroom! Glyphs are pictorial forms of data collection. They are a fun way in which to connect math to language arts and other content areas. Students color and draw on their glyph according to the directions on the direction page. Then, students are able to read the glyphs and collect data about the topics for the glyph. This glyph is focused on reading and book attitudes and preferences.
Once glyphs are completed, students should find ways to display the class data - bar graphs, pie graphs, pictographs, tables, etc.... I like to assign groups to one specific data set. For easy data collection and a cute display, hang up all glyphs on a bulletin board.
Another activity would be to write facts from the glyphs on sentence strips. For example,
"About half of the class thinks they are a good reader".

NOTE: This is a part of a bigger file called GLYPHS GALORE. It includes three glyphs and tons of graphs, tables, and line plots for students to display their data. Check it out (its a better deal)!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have been a teacher in my mind for as long as I can remember! So many times, I fought with my sister and her friends to listen to me teach little lessons and grade fake papers. "School" was my favorite thing to play! Now I get to play real school everyday! I have been a "real" teacher for four years. My second home is in a bright, colorful third-grade classroom in Iowa full of bright, colorful little learners.
