Do you ever get “writer’s block”? That is when a writer is just stuck and cannot think of fresh ideas to write. Don’t worry it happens to everyone from time to time.
A lot of times writers have trouble because they may not have organized their writing or planned it out well. It is always a great idea to plan our writing before diving in!
I found a great tool that you can use when planning your biography writing! It is called the Bio Cube and all you need to do is follow the steps and fill in the information to create your bio cube. Once all six sides of the cube display a check mark over the number you are ready to print and build your cube. Then use your cube to write away! If you want to us the planning sheet just click on the words, planning sheet.
Happy writing 4th grade!
