Biography Time Capsule Project Sheet

Author Fact Sheet

Oral Presentation Guidelines

Our project will be focusing on the authors of today and the past. We are going to create a time capsule filled with items from your author's life. These items will represent their childhood, teenage years, and adult life.

In addition to the time capsule, you will also be required to complete a simple fact sheet about your author.

At the end of the project, each student will discuss the objects in their time capsule and how they relate to the author's life.
