A Biographical Information Template for Any Occasion

Looking for some advice as to how you might use this biographical information template pack with your students? Here are some suggestions:

• Modelled Writing – Project one of the biography graphic organiser templates onto your interactive whiteboard for whole-class modelled writing activities. Fill in the sections collaboratively as a class to create a simple biography.
• Planning and Notetaking – Use the templates as planning sheets. For example, students can research the early life of their chosen subject, then record simple notes on the corresponding Early Life Facts template.
• Differentiation – Use the templates to cater to the varying learning needs of your students. For example, more confident students may be capable of completing a complete biography using the Biography Fact File template, whereas less confident students might focus on only one or two aspects of the person’s life.
