Biography and Autobiography

Last updated

16 November 2014

This is a powerpoint presentation about the features of biography and autobiography. I am a student teacher and have created this as a starting point in my very first literacy lesson for year 6, to distinguish between the two types of texts. I feel this is a good introductive presentation, or revision aid. We will later be focussing on biographies of Malorie Blackman, hence her photograph featuring on the opening page. Please feel free to add any comments about this resource as it is my first attempt and any feedback is greatly appreicated.
