April 22 

  • Read the second ½ of your Primary biography.  
  •  Skim your 2nd biography and look at the pictures.
  • Write down the information about your biographies on the 
                INSTRUCTION PAGE (page 5).

  • Now, take a few minutes to fill out a first rough draft of the 
                5 PARAGRAPH GRAPHIC ORGANIZER (page 11) . 

  • BRING YOUR ROUGH DRAFT of your Graphic Organizer TO CLASS.     



(Note: in determining page numbers, the printed Project Packet
 that was handed out in class the pages are hand numbered.  
In the online version the cover is page one so each page ONLINE 
appears one page later than the table of contents.  
So, if you want to reprint the Graphic Organizer you 
will need to print page 12).
