born on my birthday biopoem

now that we have written our autobiopoems, it's time to write about someone else. for the second part of this assignment, you will use write a biopoem (same format) for a "famous person" who shares your birthday.

* get out a sheet of lined paper for your notes
* write your name and birth date at the top of the page
* click this link
* enter your birthday beside where it says "Who was born on your birthday?"
* study the list, doing preliminary web research if necessary, before deciding who you will write about
* write your person's name and birth date under your name and birth date on your notes paper

* research your person, consulting at least two sources (both can be web based, but YOU MUST PROPERLY FORMAT YOUR SOURCES)
* take point-form notes in your own words
* compose a biopoem about your person, using the same criteria we used for the autobiopoem

then you will be ready for the next step...
