Famous Missourians

Today you will begin the work many of you have been waiting for all year! Today you will explore several different Famous Missourian's and make a list of your three top favorites. Please keep these questions in mind when selecting your top three favorites.

1. What appeals to you the most about this person's life?
2. Is the person you would like to do "researchable"?

Good luck!

Immersing Ourselves in Biographies

As you click and explore the biographies, be sure to READ like a WRITER!

Ask yourself:
What is the work that goes into the creation of a biography?

Name the specific characteristics that you notice and as we begin our unit, we will have an idea of where I work will go.
