My Project

We have a unit where we learn all about biographies. The kids read and research important people. They then create a powerpoint and written project. They put all this together and present a project about their person.

We need fun and interesting biography books for our projects.

I found a list of fun, interesting, and influential people to have the students research. These books are great resources for the kids to use to research. Please consider donating to our project! Any help you can give will be a big blessing. Thank you!
