It is an organizer tool for students to use as they conduct their own research. Please note: This download does NOT include a specific article or links to defined articles.
This single-page worksheet (includes both printable PDF and Google Drive version) is a powerful research organizer that’ll get students digging deep into Angie Thomas’ background. Skip the typical Angie Thomas introduction lecture as you launch a study of The Hate U Give and, instead, empower students to find their own interesting facts about this author’s life with this “Author Bio” print/post-and-teach activity.
