Today’s Task

Today you are to create a Bio-Cube on Charlie Chaplin

‘What is a Bio-Cube?’ I hear you say.

A Bio-Cube is a cool interactive way of create a biography of person or group. There are six (6) sides to the cube, so you need to research six (6) different types of information, such as background information, important quotes, significance of the person and the obstacles he/she faced.

To create your cube you will need to access the site listed below



You are free to research information from any website, however, I urge you to challenge yourselves and stay away from Wikipedia or Wiki Answers and explore sites such as:







‘TOO EASY’ I hear you say

Well there is a catch. I would like for you to make sure that the information that you place on your cube is your own. To do this I have created a word document for you. This allows you to copy and paste information from your chosen website into the left column, and then re-writes this information into your own words in the right column. You can then copy and paste your OWN WORDS back onto your Bio-Cube.

What to hand in????

You must hand in the completed bio-cube and planning sheet on Monday May 21st. **Have your cube stuck together and looking like a cube, not a flat piece of paper. AND yes, it must be printed out.
