Getting a snapshot of my students’ writing is a great way to show students how their writing develops over the course of a school year. This pack will provide all you need to get your kids writing a biography using a brochure format and a gourd. This pack includes: - teacher notes - writing project directions - poster - What is a Biography? - prewriting sheet - informative charts for biography sections - outlines of assorted gourds - final copy sheet (labeled and blank versions included) - rubric for a biography We do one of these short writing assignments each month. I collect them, laminate them, and keep them in an individual portfolio for each student. At the end of the year, I bind these monthly writing assignments in our spiral binding machine and give them to the students. Students create their own cover for these writing pieces in May. For this one, students write an acrostic poem with their first name that describes themselves. They can add their last name or last initial if they want. Students can describe what they look like, their personality, their likes and dislikes, etc. There is a descriptive word list included. My students can also use the Internet to look use descriptive words. This is a writing assignment that we often do digitally, students can add clip art and background colors. I want to see their descriptions and how they write. There is a word list and writing sheets included in this pack. I use a rubric for descriptive acrostic poetry to grade these writing samples. The rubric is optional of course, use what works best for your classroom! I will be adding additional Monthly Writing packs soon! Stay tuned and you can also “follow” my TpT shop to get emails when new products are listed!
