Autobiography Book With Non Fiction Text & Graphic Features

This autobiography book could be used at any time of the year. I’ve used it when teaching informative writing and non-fiction text & graphic features and as a getting to know you activity at the beginning of the year.

It includes:

Non-Fiction text & graphic features reference handout
Autobiography cover (2 types- landscape and portrait photo/illustration template)
Table of Contents (blank so your students can come up with their own headings for each page of their book)

Page templates:

Blank template to add a heading and for students to create a diagram. map, chart, and graph, with a space to add text on the bottom. You could make as many copies of this page as needed.
Boy and girl templates for diagram (or blank template can be used)
Photo/illustration page with a space to add a caption. You could make as many copies of this page as needed.
USA map template (B & W and color)
Chart template- You could use this one or your students may use the blank template if you want your students to make and customize their own charts.
Bar graph template- You could use this one or your students may use the blank template if you your students to make different kinds of graphs.
Glossary template
Index template
Photo collage template- Students could include as many pages as they’d like and include photos or illustrations with captions.
Variety of page templates for writing

All pages are black and white for easy printing. You decide if you want your students to add color or decorate it. It looks great when it’s spiral bound, but I’ve stapled it, used brass fasteners, or even used ribbon/yarn to bind it. I’ve included some sample pages as examples, too. Brainstorm page ideas with your students. Some page ideas include a description of the student, favorites, family, friends, and hobbies & interests.
