Bio Poem Template

A bio poem, short for a biographical poem, is a poem that describes a person. In this worksheet, children read an example of a bio poem for jazz musician Thelonious Monk, then use the prompt to create a bio poem for a person of their choosing. Designed for a third, fourth, and fifth grade literacy curriculum, this bio poem template lends well to a study on poetry. It is also a fun, creative way for young learners to explore biographies.
