Putting Together Your Final Autobiography

As we get into the last weeks of the autobiography project, it’s time to start thinking about how to put the book together. The following is a list of materials you will need to put together your final autobiography.

Materials Needed:
• 3-ring binder, 1”-2” capacity
• Package of Sheet Protectors, 3-ring binder ready, letter sized
• Various photographs of you growing up (enough to fill between 5-10 pages of the autobiography and some for the cover)
• Tabs to label each chapter (optional)
• Any additional collage materials you might want for each section and/or the cover
• Final, clean copies of each autobiography chapter. The chapters should be typed, double-spaced and with a clear number and title (i.e., Chapter 1—Family)
• A clean, final copy of your six-word memoir
• A clean, final typed copy of your personal action peom
• A clean, typed, final copy of your Spanish Identity poem (including English translation)
• A typed table of contents, listing the chapters in order

Important Dates:
• All materials for the final autobiography must be brought in by no later than Tuesday, May 17th. If you want to bring them in earlier, there will be a place in the classroom to store all autobiography materials.

YEAH, AUTOBIOGRAPHIES!
