Bio Poem

I teach fifth grade, and I needed some student work to put up in our classroom. My teammate Jeff gave me the idea to write Bio-Poems. A bio poem is a writing assignment that allows you to tell about and describe yourself in a creative way using a specific format! Then we used the Photo Booth application to take our picture and... Ta-Da!!!! I modeled one for the students, so I thought I'd put it up here too!

Line 1: Your first name
Line 2: Four words that describe you. (adjectives)
Line 3: Son or Daughter of... (names of your parents)
Line 4: Lover of... (list 3 things you love)
Line 5: Who feels... (3 things that create emotion)
Line 6: Who needs... (3 things you need to make you feel good)
Line 7: Who gives... (3 things you give to others)
Line 8: Who fears... (3 things that you fear)
Line 9: Who would like to see... (3 things you would like to see happen)
Line 10: Resident of... (city, state)
Line 11: Your last name

Here's mine :)

Kelly
Athletic, Nice, Intelligent, Balanced
Daughter of Max and Claire
Lover of sports, sunshine, and crafts.
Who feels happy when I hear children laugh, sad when someone’s feelings get hurt, and loved when I’m with my family.
Who needs love, support, and encouragement.
Who gives smiles, advice, and leadership.
Who fears hitting a deer, failing at something, and spiders.
Who would like to see kids look out for one another, the Northern Lights in Alaska, and Paris.
Resident of Centennial, Colorado
