Today we introduced what our genre is going to be in writing over the next few weeks, before the October break:
BIOGRAPHY!
A BIOGRAPHY is an recount of someone’s life, written by someone who has shown an interest in them.
We will be teaching this through the theme of:
MY HERO!
YOUR HOMEWORK: DUE Wednesday 19th September 2012
- Choose your HERO. This should be someone who has made a DIFFERENCE. This could be a difference to your life, or the lives of many. Think- “What have they done for the world?“
- RESEARCH your hero using books and the internet. Our advice is to AVOID Wikipedia, as the information is not necessarily true.
- YOUR TASK is to BRING IN as much information you can find about your hero- NOT to write about the person- we will do that during writing time.
We look forward to hearing out who your hero is.
