Due May 2 - submit on May 9 (Library Bibliography)

Our class at the South Branch Library was really fun! As you know, this week's essay is a three paragraph BIOGRAPHY. 

All required DRESS-UPs, Openers, and DECs should be properly indicated in each paragraph. No banned words or contractions. Vocabulary words, if properly used and indicated, are extra credit.



This essay is to be written with NO Internet research. None! Zilch! Nada! Think of this as stepping back in time . . . . . 



The final draft should be handwritten in blue or black pen. Make absolutely, positively sure it is legible and neat.

Ask your Mom and Dad if they can read it. That is usually a good test of handwriting legibility.




Here are the Biography Assignments:


Brecka: Joan of Arc

Mia: Pablo Picasso

Madison:  Edgar Degas

Bethany: John Quincy Adams

 Santi:  Alexander the Great

Joshua:  Abe Lincoln

Max:  Harriet Tubman

Jonah: Thomas Jefferson

Boston: Marco Polo


What is required in each paragraph?
All  DRESS-UPS
Openers: 2, 3, 5, 6
2 DECs (of your choice) 
Topic/Clincher
