The Non-Fiction, Informational, Body Biography Project Bundle, for Any Text, or Film is filled with all you need to teach and promote the amazing people your students experience in their reading. Your students will experience the unique approach of using a collaborative poster, a biography report, textual evidence, research, and the body biography project! It’s here! The wait is over!
This blank template bundle includes 3 notable person outlines or sketches for an adult female, adult male, and a child. Give your students a relevant and modern experience while promoting the 4 C’s, character traits. Leave the biography reports up all year long! I adapted the body biography concept to align with citing textual evidence, character traits, research, and inference skills.
