Are you a teacher looking for an engaging way to develop your students' research and presentation skills?

Look no further! This is the perfect tool to inspire creativity, critical thinking, and research skills in your classroom.

Included:

• Lionel Messi
• Sonia Sotomayor
• César Chávez
• Frida Kahlo
• Roberto Clemente
• Dolores Huerta
• Selena Quintanilla
• Ellen Ochoa... and more added all the time!

Two blank templates:

• One that is pre-filled with some of an influential Latino's picture and name
• One that is blank and requires the student to write their name and draw their portrait (can be used for any person)

Key Features:

✨ Structured Framework: This template provides a well-organized and structured framework for students to conduct research on a chosen individual's biography. It guides them through essential components such as background, early life, accomplishments, and more.

✨ Versatility: Tailor the template to fit the unique needs of your curriculum. Whether your focus is historical figures, contemporary leaders, or cultural icons, this template is adaptable to a variety of subjects.

✨ Encourages Independent Learning: Empower students to take ownership of their learning journey. The blank spaces prompt students to conduct independent research, fostering a sense of curiosity and self-directed learning.

✨ Develops Research Skills: Our template encourages students to utilize various research methods, including online resources, books, and interviews. It's a fantastic opportunity for them to hone their research skills and discern reliable information.

✨ Promotes Presentation Skills: Beyond researching, students will practice organizing information coherently and presenting it in a well-structured report. This template lays the foundation for effective communication, a crucial skill in any academic or professional setting.

How It Works:

1. Choose a Subject: Students select an individual to research. This could be anyone from historical figures, scientists, artists, to contemporary leaders or influencers. Lionel Messi is pre-filled in one version of this template.
2. Fill in the Blanks: The template guides students through the research process. They'll fill in key sections, providing biographical information, accomplishments, and the impact of the chosen individual.
3. Present to the Class: The completed reports become the basis for engaging class presentations. This step encourages students to express themselves confidently and articulately.

Why Choose Our Template:

⭐️ Time-Saving: No need to create a research template from scratch. Our product saves you time and ensures a standardized approach to student research projects.

⭐️ Engagement: Transform mundane research projects into exciting opportunities for self-discovery and exploration.

⭐️ Skill Development: Equip your students with essential research, organization, and presentation skills that will serve them well in their academic and professional journeys.
