Once you have read the book and/or have a general understanding of the person s life, try the following activities: SCIENTIST S LABORATORY (SCIENCE PROJECT): Students will be experimenting with science! Include the science teacher in this particular project for a more authentic feel. Have the students seen science experiments demonstrated before? Is there a science fair you can attend or pictures you can look at? Encourage students to try their experiments at home with a parent or guardian present and prepare notes for their presentation to the class. ASK STUDENTS TO: o Research scientific principles explored by their Who Was...? scientist. Here are some questions: What did you know about your famous scientist before reading the biography? What do you know now? What is he/she most remembered for? o Create an experiment to test the principles involved o Create a presentation for the class, with notes and a poster for students to reference during your demonstration o Lead the classmates in the demonstration, and classmates will record their observations and conclusions. Common Core State Standards (Science Project): RI.4.7., RI.5.7., RI.6.7. INVENTOR INFOMERCIAL (SCIENCE AND PERFORMANCE): Students will be creating infomercials. Review the main criteria of an infomercial, and ask students if they have seen or heard infomercials on TV, online, or on the radio. What are some of the most memorable infomercials and why? Where does the word infomercial come from? ASK STUDENTS TO: o Improve upon an invention or create a whole new invention based on the same scientific principles o Write a persuasive script for an infomercial, trying to sell their invention to their classmates o If possible, use a recording device to film the infomercials, and review all of them collectively Common Core State Standards (Science and Performance): SL.4.4., SL.5.4., SL.6.4.

WHO WAS GUESSING GAME: o Make this game interactive and FUN by photocopying book covers for your students.
