Today we started our new biography project. The students will be working on this mainly in class over the next 6 weeks, however they can read from their a book or research their person on the internet at home if they would like. The students chose a person to learn about. If you go to the curriculum tab under reading and grammar there is a website link that the students can find a list of individuals. There are then websites linked to each person for the students to follow that will help with their research. (This site is password protected, and the password can be found at the top of the information sheet the students brought home today. If you need me to send you the password by e-mail, please let me know.) At the end of the project the students will be doing a wax museum type activity where they will dress up as their famous person. This will be a fun way for them to present their information.
