Hameray Classroom Literacy Blog

Using graphic organizers with biographies—with free download.

Hello all. I’m Rich from   Mr. Giso's Room to Read ,  and this is my third guest blog post featuring the biographies. You can read the earlier ones   here   and   here . The   Hameray Biography Series   has been a hit in my multi-age classroom. 

Warm weather is (hopefully) upon us!   This means many of us may be wrapping up a productive school year or adventuring on an extended year or summer program launch.   A goal for my readers over the summer months is that they keep on reading in order to avoid the well-known “summer slide” in reading ability.   Our young readers’ reading muscles often weaken from not being kept in shape over the summer.

What I like about these prompts is that they place the readers in the shoes of the subject of the biography.   This response activity can be placed in an independent center, sent home in a summer reading log, completed during independent reading just before a reading conference or as a send-off response to text after a guided-reading lesson. It is very versatile!  You can download the sheet at the bottom of this page!

Now I've moved to the Carlton Innovation School, also in Salem, Massachusetts, where I am ready to begin my first year as a member of a team of four teachers that teach grades one and two. In addition, I teach undergraduate and graduate students at Salem State University. My courses involve literacy, children's literature, and elementary education. My educational interests include early literacy, effective reading interventions, and positive classroom climates.

For more information about the Hameray Biography Series , click the series highlights image on the left below to download an information sheet with key features. To download the graphic organizer, click the worksheet image to the right.

Biography Graphic Organizer

A Biography Graphic Organizer is an effective teaching tool for students in any subject area.

It can be used to encourage students to research, compare and contrast the lives of historical figures and create compelling stories to explain why a person is important. The organizer offers students a way to analyze and visually display the life of a famous figure, allowing them to trace the historical and personal connections of a person’s life story. With a Biography Graphic Organizer, students can gain valuable insights into the past, their own lives, and the people who have shaped their world.
