PIG TEST
Do this, and don't cheat by reading the whole thing first. It's funny if you do it right! Be sure to try this out first yourself before you do it with your students.
Don't scroll down and peek at the results
until you have drawn your pig.
Give each student a piece of paper. Ask each to draw a picture of a pig on it, just a basic drawing, don't spend all day on it. After it is finished, pass out sheets with the results so they can compare the answers to how they drew their pig. You will want to copy and paste the answers into a word processor and eliminate the adult answers. If you have a non-reading group, tell each one to look at their own picture while you read each meaning outloud. This is just for fun and there should be no put downs. The students' answers follow the adult ones if different.
OK now to the interesting stuff ...
