Activity 1: Make a Narrative Report

Upon seeing and reading the task which is we need to interview five people. When I see the questions, I
find it interesting and amazing that it is all about voting. And the people must be smart in picking their
leader.

I’ve analyze and once I’m done analyzing the questions. I look for five person that I’m going to
interview. It is not hard for me to look for five person that I will interview since almost of our neighbor
are all registered voter. I ask them first if it is okay to interview them. And luckily they all said yes.

I send them the questions they need to answer since. It is not hard to interview them because I can
interview them by the use of technology. And lastly, I asked and wished to them to answer all the
questions honestly and whole-heartedly.

Below are the answers from my five interviewers. I interviewed five people that is registered voters in our
beloved barangay.
