Why use biographies in reading?
“In learning about the life of another, you create comparisons and differences and begin to understand yourself a bit more,” says Burke. “Kids can see ‘famous’ and ordinary people as real people — with their failures, successes, challenges, feelings, and emotions — making extraordinary accomplishments. This can influence how a child reacts to their environment and expand their thinking.” (Scholastic, 2021)
 
Spark a love of science with these high interest, science based reading passages.  A great way to meet multiple standards with one activity. 
 
Ways to implement:
  • Famous Person of the Month/Week/Day: Create a place in your classroom (bulletin board, wall, door, etc.) to display the person of the month. Students can read the information on the person and complete one of the info sheets provided in this resource. There can be designated time for this, such as morning work or when students finish classwork early.
  • ELA or Science Workstation: Students can read about each famous person, discuss with teams, then complete the information sheets provided.
  • Articles can be printed and put together as a book, displayed around the classroom, or put in small groups for station activities!
  • Encourage students to ask questions about the famous person and later research them. This will increase a love for science in students, while allowing the students to think critically about the text.
