Hispanic History Biography Research Activities

Biography projects work best when students get a choice in how they show what they learned. In this bundle, students research a Hispanic historical figure and pick a profile page, a bookmark brochure or a pop-up for their interactive notebook, with a writing extension and checklist to walk them through it. I like it for Hispanic Heritage Month, but it works any time of year in grades 6 to 12, in print or Google Slides.

How I'd use this

Let students sign up for their person on a class chart so no two students research the same figure. When the bookmarks or pop-ups are done, hang the pennant and set up a gallery walk where each student leaves one fact on a sticky note for three classmates. Everyone learns about several people instead of just their own.
