Entrepreneur biography project 3rd

Wow!  I am just so impressed with my kiddos biography projects this year.  They were so engaged throughout this process- many of them completed much of their project at home.  

Our unit began by studying the biographies of several famous historical people all together.

 We studied Helen Keller, Amelia Earhart, Neil Armstrong, Ruby Bridges, Jesse Owens, and many other noteworthy people.

 We covered comparisons, asking questions, main idea, comparing main ideas, and sequencing.  

After 2 weeks of practicing, my students were ready to try closely reading a biography on their own.

 Each student chose a book from the Who Was biography series.  (If you have never seen these biographies, check them out!

 They are absolutely perfect for 3rd grade, and the kids LOVE them!)  Finally, the students were asked to complete a final project.  

We just finished all 24 presentations today and, boy, were they phenomenal!
