Autobiography Writing Unit
My kids finished up their autobiography writing unit last week and I couldn't be happier with how their books turned out! They absolutely loved making these books all about themselves =) We started the unit off by reading different autobiographies and discussing what made them interesting. I then introduced the book that they would be writing called "An Autobiography of Me!" Any time they get to publish their writing in a book form, they are so motivated to write.
We started by filling out the planning page and then I modeled how to turn their ideas on the planning page into complete sentences in the book. Each book has a table of contents, blank photo boxes on each page, and a caption box for each picture. We also took time to review the different parts of a non-fiction book including the table of contents, headings, captions, photos, etc. I let my students choose whether they wanted to illustrate a picture on each page or whether they wanted to bring in real photographs of themselves. I would say about 90% of my class opted to bring in photographs. It was adorable to see them as babies!
These books turned out great and were a fun way to learn about autobiographies, non-fiction text features, and writing. If you'd like to check out more about this unit, you can click on the picture below to read more about my "It's All About ME! {A Mini Autiobiography Writing Unit}" on TpT. It includes the planning page, student booklet, autobiography poster, and an editable teacher autiobiography book!

Scholars are not artists or entrepreneurs. You look to become actually defensive of this video and attacks on our
ReplyDeleteat present outdated schooling method. Allow me put the question?
back again on you. Why do you feel English, math, and science must be placed
in a significantly greater value than art?
Almost everything we need to buy has an art/creativity component: shoes, phones, tablets, cars, movies,
fine dining, clothes, vacation resorts - yet we
tend not to teach creative imagination or entrepreneurial skills in public college.
