Mini Biography
Most people know the name Anne Frank. If you talk about Anne Frank in class, your students will likely bring some background information with them. This can be very empowering for low-level learners. Here is a short recording about the famous diarist. The full printable Mini-Biographies lesson in our library contains reading comprehension questions, and two vocabulary tasks. If your students enjoying learning about famous people, you can also use our popular Famous People lesson plans. Preview all of ESL-Library’s Mini-Biographies here.
