Writing Autobiographies

by Jennifer Terry

Inspire, motivate and challenge students to write about what interests them most -- themselves! Helps teachers guide students through the five steps of the writing process as they write about their own interests and experiences, such as their best friends; heroes; their family; their favorite music, food, movies; their goals and dreams; and much more. Using the reproducible draft and final worksheets, students learn how to research, write drafts, edit their own and each other's work, and complete finished products worthy of publication.
