TBT: 6th Grade Biography Reports

Now that our students and faculty have settled in a bit, we hope to resume our regular posting schedule soon. In the meantime, however, we have a few things to share from last school year.

Last spring, Mrs. McGrath's 6th graders each chose a biography to read and gave a presentation on their subject to their classmates. Biography subjects were varied and creative: Mother Teresa, Jackie Robinson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., President Obama, Marie Curie, Malala, Walt Disney, J.K. Rowling, Wilma Rudolph, Helen Keller, Amelia Earhart, and Pocahontas.

The students enjoyed reading about their own subject and then learning from their classmates, as well. More than a few were surprised by how much fun they had with this assignment!
