  • ·        The student will need a visual aide (a puppet, drawing, photograph, shadowbox, dress-up, etc.) to go along with his/her report.
  • ·         In class we will also create a “Bio-Buddy” and a brief summary of the famous person. 

Rubric:  (20 pts. each)

We hope the children will enjoy reading about a famous person and will learn about others from their classmates.  The Bio-Buddies and summaries will be on display in our hallway at a later date. Read, read, read and learn some neat facts!
