Hello Lit. Circle B,
We just learned about biographies and are about to read one about Martin Luther King, Jr. Remember that a biography is a true story about someone's life written by someone else.
Please read a one biography from this website: http://www.biography.com/bio4kids/bio4kids-meet.jsp. When you have read about that person, please write a summary of that person's life. Begin with a topic sentence and be sure to include the most important things in their life. It should be AT LEAST 5 sentences.
Thanks,
Mrs. S

Dear Mrs.Springston,
ReplyDeleteI am reading a biography about Babe Ruth.
Babe Ruth had a rough childhood and he liked getting in trouble so he got sent to reform school several times.
He found out about baseball and signed his first contract at the age of 19.
He stated a miner league team in 1914.
He was famous for the most home runs witch was 714.
It took until 1974 for anyone to pass this number.
He died from cancer in 1\16\1948 in New York.

Dear Kyle,
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting that you read about Christopher Columbus and that I'm reading this right now on this day. It's weird because did you know that today is Columbus Day?? It really is! So, now you know that Christopher Columbus is always celebrated in October!

Barack's mother and sister moved back to Hawaii because they want to stay with Barack and they wanted to see him in 1972.Also Barack's mother wanted to move back to Indonesia because she wanted to help the people there. When Barack Obama finshed college he wanted to help people.Also Barack Obama worked as a community organizer in Chicago and he help curchs and house projects and made community a better place for people. 1988 Barack Obama wanted to become a lawyer so he went to Boston and went to school in Harvard University Law School and tried to become a lawyer.

Dear Mrs. S,
ReplyDeleteThis is what I learned about Amilia Earhart. She saw her first airplane in a state fair, but she didn't think it was so amazing. Then one day she took her first airplane then she changed her mind about airplanes.Later on she took her firt lesson in learning how to fly an airplane.Amelia then bought her first airplane.She named it “canary”. After a long time,she got an invatation in 1928. The invatation asked Amelia if she'd like to be the first woman to fly through the atlantic ocean.Amelia was a passenger on first trip to the atlantic ocean. The man that was driving was named Bill and the co pilot was named Louis E. After all that happened, Amelia decied to go on her own adventure.That braught internatinol fame.Since Amelia was the first woman to cross the atlantic ocaen she got rewared.
