Biography Project

We will be doing a two-month project on biographies - this will involve research, writing and creative projects about a famous or influential person. Your first assignment is a brainstorming assignment to decide who you will base your research project on.

Brainstorm - to try to solve a problem by thinking intensely about it

In your first post, please list 3 famous or influential people. For each person, answer the following questions:
1. What has this person done to make him or her famous?
2. Has this person's impact been positive or negative? Why?
3. Why are you interested in this person's life?

This post should be published by Saturday, October 9

After you publish your first post, read the posts of the three other students in your group and leave a comment - tell each of them which of their three ideas is the best and why you think so.
