Writing an Autobiography
This resource will help your students understand autobiographies and will help them write one. I like to start this lesson by having students read an autobiography written by someone that we are learning about in class already. Maybe a scientist, an author, or famous mathematician. This helps them to understand what an autobiography is and how they can write one. This can be modified into a biography too where students use the About Me questions to interview one of their classmate or family memb

Zoo Animal Research Report (grading rubric)
This is the original rubric I created to assign a numerical grade (1-100) on the zoo animal research reports my students created. Since they are so young, I chose to weigh their rough drafts as well as final copies when assigning a grade (final copies alone would have too much of my influence attached). This rubric was used in a 1st grade classroom, but could easily be transferred to a 2nd or 3rd grade.
