2 1. LEADERS Teachers: Read one of the Who Was? books about a famous leader (examples: Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., Queen Elizabeth, George Washington) or assign a specific book to the class for independent reading. Once you have read the book and/or have a general understanding of the person s life, try the following activities: COMIC TIMELINE (TECHNOLOGY): Students will be creating a timeline of each leader s life in the form of a comic strip. Pull examples of comic strips from magazines, journals, and newspapers. Discuss the limitations of space and text and how the pictures either reiterate the words or expand upon them. Allow students to use these as a model when they are drawing and writing their own. ASK STUDENTS TO: o Refer to the timeline of their Who Was...? leader s life and the timeline of the world (found in the back of each Who Was...? biography) o Create a comic strip* documenting the most important moments or events in their Who Was...? leader s life. Here are some questions to prompt your class: What is the layout of your comic strip? (Will it go across or down the page?) How will this influence your timeline? What are some of the events you should include? What should be left out? What should be drawn, and what should be written? Will the drawing be in black-and-white or color, and why? * This comic strip can be created online using Smart boards, Toondoo, or MakeBeliefsComix or as a hard copy using drawing paper, pencils, and markers. ( Common Core State Standards (Technology): RI.4.7., RI.5.7., RI.6.7. WHO S WHO AWARDS (WRITING AND SPEAKING): Students will be working collaboratively in groups to present an award show for the most notable Who Was...? leaders. Engage the students in conversation about award shows that they watch on television, and use these shows as a model for their own. ASK STUDENTS TO: o Brainstorm ideas for different appropriate awards for each leader (one award might be The Leader Who Most Changed the World) o Play the parts of hosts and leaders: Assign roles to students, or have them nominate certain classmates for specific roles o Create the script for the award show, including welcoming remarks, acceptance speeches, and closing remarks. Encourage the students to include the leaders recognizable quotes when appropriate. o Deliver the awards and the speeches, explaining why each leader is the most deserving: Cite specific events or actions from his or her life o Perform for another class or group, setting a stage o Integrate as much technology as possible to create an authentic award show: Try GarageBand for music and sound effects Film parts of the show using available handheld recorders Post online feedback to one another using Wallwisher: Post two things they learned about a leader that they didn t know before the show ( Common Core State Standards (Writing and Speaking): SL.4.1., SL.5.1., SL.6.1., SL.4.4., SL.5.4., SL.6.4., L.4.5., L.5.5., L.6.5. NELSON MANDELA ROOM
3 12. MISCELLANEOUS GENERAL ACTIVITIES Teachers: Here are some miscellaneous general activities that apply to any and all of the books in the Who Was? series. WHO WAS GUESSING GAME: o Make this game interactive and FUN by photocopying book covers for your students. Keep them face down and each student will have a turn picking up the book cover and taping it to their forehead (without seeing who their famous figure is). Classmates will then provide clues for the person until they have enough information to guess who they are. Common Core State Standards (Writing and Performance): W.4.4., W.5.4., W.6.4., W. 4.6., W.5.6., W6.6, SL.4.4., SL.5.4., SL.6.4. YOU WERE THERE (WRITING): o Students imagine what it would have been like if they had been at an event related to their Who Was...? figure o Determine the main idea of the event, summarize key details based on their unique perspectives, and offer a secondhand account of a historical event in narrative form. Example: You were in the audience when Abraham Lincoln gave his famous Gettysburg Address. Who were you? How were you feeling based on your background? Compare and contrast with a factual summary of this event Common Core State Standards (Writing): RI.4.2., RI.5.2., W.4.4., W.5.4., W.6.4. WHO AM I? (WRITING): o Teacher creates a bank of historical figures that all students must research o Each student is assigned (secretly) a historical figure to play o Classmates ask yes/no questions in order to reveal the identity of the historical figure Common Core State Standards (Writing): W.4.9., W.5.9., W.6.9., SL.4.1., SL.5.1., SL.6.1. TIMELINE TECHNOLOGY (WRITING AND TECHNOLOGY): o Students use xtimeline ( to re-create the timelines of their Who Was...? biographies Common Core State Standards (Writing and Technology): RI.4.7., RI.5.7., RI.6.7. RESEARCH TECHNOLOGY PROJECT (WRITING AND TECHNOLOGY): o Students present research on their Who Was...? figures, using Prezi ( o Add sound, music, video, and clip art to create a dynamic presentation for the class Common Core State Standards (Writing and Technology): W.4.7., W.5.7., W.6.7., W.4.6., W.5.6., W.6.6. WORD JUMBLE TECHNOLOGY (WRITING AND TECHNOLOGY): o Students brainstorm words that describe their Who Was...? figures and create a master list o Upload the lists to Wordle ( to create interesting word art Common Core State Standards (Writing and Technology): W.4.6., W.5.6., W.6.6.
