The document summarizes the Fairview Writing Project involving staff collaboration on writing investigations. A staff writing group meets weekly to share their work. Heather and Kathi lead an in-service training teachers on using the investigation process, while Ann produces podcasts following the same process. Learning partners from different grades worked together on investigations, with older students assisting younger ones. Teachers shared their experiences using the process in two in-service sessions. Students produced podcasts about holidays they researched using print and online sources.
