Students can learn a lot about how we uncover the mysteries of the past as well as the different careers available by studying social scientists and those that have made contributions to our understanding of history. There are many different archeologists, paleoanthropologists, and scientists to research. In this activity, students will create a biography poster highlighting the accomplishments of someone in the study of Early Humans.
These posters can be printed out, laminated and hung around the room as a visual reminder of these notable people and their accomplishments.
Students can also present their posters to their classmates, sharing their knowledge about their person. Thus combining research, writing and public speaking skills into one powerful assignment.Find more biography poster templates to add to this assignment if desired!
