These biographies include information on the person's early life, what contributions they made to society, 2-3 interesting or unique facts about the person, and the students own reflections about the person and their contributions and what they have learned. In addition to a 2-3 page paper, the students are required to make something that represents their person. The students will be presenting their person and object to the class. They will have to speak to the class about their person in a 2-3 minutes presentation. Flash cards may be used during presentation. The students are not expected to read their two to three page papers word for word.
