Students have started reading biographies of their choice this week. Along with the book that was given to them, students are expected to use another reference to learn more about their famous person. Some of them have found additional books in our classroom, but the others will need to either make a trip to the library or read an article about their person. Below, please see two great websites that could be a great help to your child.
biography.com
World Book Online
The username and password is ps154k. The students should choose World Book Student.
After reading about their famous person, each student will write a feature article based off the life of the person they studied. Sstudents received a Feature Article Checklist and a few mentor texts to help guide them through their writing piece. The students are required to submit their checklist with their final published piece. Please feel free to email me with any additional questions.
