Why Create Biographies?
When someone has a biography written about them, it is because they have done something in their life that others consider to be quite important--important enough to learn and write about! Usually the person has done something positive and admirable and is an inspiration to others.
In order to create a biography, students will learn about the person’s early life, childhood, education, family, and accomplishments. It is also important for the student to be able to express why they chose this person, and the impact this person has made on the world or the student’s life in particular. For example, students can ask: what can I learn from this person? What mistakes has this person made that I can relate to and grow from? How has this person inspired me?
When reading about and researching a person, students will encounter at least one theme, or recurring main idea, in a biography. The following is a list of potential themes:
- Sometimes life is tough and it takes strength to keep going.
- Believe in yourself and others will believe in you.
- No matter how many times you fail, never give up.
- The most difficult times in life can inspire others.
- Always have hope and stay positive.
- Know your worth: don’t let anyone drag you down.
Students should pay attention to what they think the theme is and be able to explain how they can learn from the person they are researching. Themes also make it much easier for students to present their chosen person's life as a narrative rather than a collection of facts.
Along with being able to identify the theme, there are certain elements of the biography genre that always need to be included in research if the information can be found. These elements are:
- Date and place of birth (and death, if applicable)
- Childhood
- Educational background
- Family life, either past, current, or both
- Adult life: job and current location, if applicable
- Major accomplishments
Other information like fun facts, quotes by or about the person, and photographs may also be included in the biography.
While researching an influential person, students will learn not only about the individual, but about many ways one person can change or contribute to the world. Learning about others helps us find the positive power within ourselves, and motivates us to be the best people that we can be. It is important for the student to fully be interested in learning about the person, so it is best if students choose on their own. Teachers may want to provide a list to help narrow down the choices by focusing on categories such as sports figures, entertainers, inventors, political figures, historical figures, change-makers, or someone the student knows personally. This way, they can make the biographies relevant to the unit they're teaching or the time of year!

Kako Učiti Biografije u Osnovnoj Školi
Istražite Životne Događaje u Priči
Započnite razgovorom o ključnim životnim događajima u biografiji s učenicima. Uzmite u obzir datum rođenja, obiteljski život, obrazovanje, posao i osobne događaje. Vodite učenike kroz ključne životne događaje kronološkim redom.
Razgovarajte o Temama
Nakon što razumiju događaj u životu osobe, možete ih navesti da razgovaraju o temama ili onome što su naučili o životu iz biografske priče. Uobičajene teme uključuju stvaranje razlike, prevladavanje prepreka i uvijek imaj nadu.
Povežite se sa Studentskim Životom
Neka učenici koriste Vennov dijagram da se povežu s osobom u biografiji. Oni mogu dijeliti stvari koje su im zajedničke u sredini krugova, i stvari koje su različite kod svakoga od njih izvana.
Nacrtaj to
Neka učenici nacrtaju tjelesnu biografiju kako bi potpunije razumjeli osobu. Neka ispune dijelove tijela, poput stavljanja onoga što lik voli u područje srca i crtanja onoga o čemu osoba misli gore u glavi.
Često postavljana pitanja o biografijama
Kako biografije pomažu učenicima da razumiju kako se pojedini ljudi odnose prema svijetu oko sebe?
Kada čitamo priču o tome kako je jedna osoba živjela svoj život, možemo bolje razumjeti snagu u sebi i uvidjeti koliko su naši životi važni. Svaka osoba utječe na svijet oko sebe.
Koje su neke od uobičajenih tema koje se provlače kroz biografije?
Mnoge biografije podučavaju lekcije poput toga kako prevladati prepreke, vjerovati u sebe i iskoristiti ono što imate.
Koji se univerzalni elementi nalaze u gotovo svim biografijama?
Većina biografija objašnjava datume rođenja i smrti osobe (ako je umrla), kakvo je bilo njeno djetinjstvo, njihovo obrazovanje, njihova radna postignuća te njihova osobna ili obiteljska postignuća.
Zašto bismo trebali čitati biografije?
Kada čitamo o tuđim borbama i trijumfima, vidimo što nam je zajedničko i sposobni smo uvidjeti važnost vlastitog života.
