Biographies

When setting up my classroom each September, I get the inevitable question from at least one person that asks…

My answer is: a teacher can never have enough books! We had the pleasure of adding even more new books to our class library. After opening the packages, the students noticed a theme with these new books…Biographies!

We were introduced to what a biography is and read one together. After several days of reading and sharing the books, students have finally selected one person they are interested in learning more about. The goal is to complete a presentation called Biography in a Bag and teach the class all about their person of interest. Check out the students exploring the huge selection of biographies…

      Dear Tess,
      I love Jim Henson, too. He was such a gifted man.I always loved The Labrynth and of course Sesame Street as a kid. His legacy lives on through his puppets. I’m so delighted you chose to learn about Jim and I can’t wait to see your Biography in a Bag!
