Charles Dickens Author Study

Have your students create a collaborative poster and learn about Charles Dickens in a new and engaging way!

Your students will create an author biography by researching Charles Dickens and establishing his profile on a poster.

Students will learn about Charles Dickens’s life and his body of work as a legendary author.

This is perfect for any unit on Dickens’ novels, to include:

A Tale of Two Cities

Great Expectations

Oliver Twist

David Copperfield

Additionally, your students will discover the importance of collaboration and effective communication.

PROJECT STEPS:

1) To construct the author study poster, your students will work in groups to conduct research on Charles Dickens.

2) Students will then transfer their findings to boxes on the poster.

3) Next, they will work together to color or paint the pieces of the poster.

4) Lastly, students will tape together the final product.

The poster is made up of six pieces of paper, which can be printed on regular copy paper or card stock.

Once taped together, the final product will be roughly 28″ x 15″ and can last a lifetime if you laminate it!
