Overview of Unit

This unit is a study of biographies. After learning about a variety of biographies and creating timelines on their subjects, the students were ready to sequence some major events in their own lives. Focusing on the steps of the writing process as well as the Language Arts Curriculum Standards and the NETS Standards for students, the students used technology to create the pages in their timelines. Students were able to construct timelines at their developmentally appropriate level. This unit focuses on an autobiographical timeline made into a book for children in the first grade.

 A Learning Activity Template was created to show exactly what standards applied for each lesson. The lesson plans can also be viewed by clicking on the appropriate lesson # as seen on the template.  An exhibit index lists all the exhibits used in this unit.
