HAPPY HALLOWEEN (fun story)
"My cousins and I were on a beach trip with our 70-year-old grandmother and we were riding in two separate cars. We had been writing silly messages on paper and holding them up in the windows when our cars passed each other. Well, at one point my cousin's car came up alongside ours, and that's when I saw it — my grandmother's NAKED BUTT! Yup, my Mamaw straight-up mooned us out of the window!"

You are the primary source!
Primary sources help students relate in a personal way to events of the past and promote a deeper understanding of history as a series of human events. Because primary sources are incomplete snippets of history, each one represents a mystery that students can only explore further by finding new pieces of evidence.

What are primary sources? Primary sources are the raw materials of history — original documents and objects that were created at the time under study. They are different from secondary sources, accounts that retell, analyze, or interpret events, usually at a distance of time or place.

Grandfather stories:
My Grandpa told my two Irish cousins that his name was "Albert" while he was visiting them for the first time. Keep in mind that my cousins were very young, and so had been calling him Albert for the entire week.

One day the whole family was going out somewhere, and one of my cousins talks to my Grandma.

"Is Albert coming with us?

"Albert? Who's Albert?"

"He's your husband!"

"My husband's name is Ron!"

When my Grandpa gets in the car, Grandma asks him if he told my cousins to call him Albert, upon saying yes she asked why the hell he told them that.

All he said was "I dunno, that's the first thing I thought of."

Grandfather Story:
He was the biggest smart-ass I've ever met. At my grandma's funeral, he was sitting up there by her casket. Someone came up to him, and said "Joe. I'm so sorry..."

Without missing a beat, he replies, "Why? You didn't kill her."

Even though a biography is only a small part of your book, it plays a vital role in a person’s identity. It is one of the most vital pieces that help you keep transcending from one step to the other. At no point in our lives do we stop needing to write a biography or reading others’ biographies. This is the reason why it is important to know who you are and where you come from by reading and writing biographies, or at least by doing some research on yourself.

Why is a Biography Important?
Biography is one of the most important areas of study in our school. We believe that by studying the lives of other people, we can learn more about ourselves and how we fit into the world around us.

We learn about how to live a good life by looking at those whose lives were exemplary, and we learn how to make a difference in the world by seeing how others have done it. By learning about biographies of people who are different from us, we can also see what they have in common with us—and learn more about ourselves.

Plus Points:
Biography is important because it helps you understand what life was like for someone else and how they overcame challenges. It gives you an insight into how they lived their life and how they felt about the world around them.
Biography also helps you understand how your own life has changed over time and what experiences have shaped you as a person.
It helps us to empathize with the struggles of other people and their accomplishments. Biographies help us to see that we are not alone in our problems, and that there are ways through them.
Without biographies, we would not be able to learn from the mistakes of others and apply that knowledge to ourselves. It also teaches us about our own culture and how it has evolved over time.
Biography can also serve as an inspiration for those who are looking for ways to improve their own lives.
When you read a biography, you will learn about the subject’s successes and failures. You will see how they overcome their challenges, or how they failed to do so. You will understand how their personality influenced their choices, and how their choices affected their lives and the lives of others around them.

I had a Great Great Grandfather named Dov Bahr. I’m only suggesting Mars (maker of the ice cream) and Unilever (maker of the soap) kick back a little money. We had the name first.

Biographies are often divided into sections:
Introduction: This section explains why the author wrote this book and what they hope to accomplish with it. It might also include background information on the subject of the book, such as their birthdate or career path.

Family history: This section tells you about the subject’s family tree and how they were raised by their parents and any siblings they may have had. It sometimes includes information about other relatives as well, such as grandparents or great-grandparents if those people were famous in some way too! The family history section also includes information about where these people lived throughout their childhoods so that readers can learn more about their personal lives too!
Of all the ways that we can learn about our ancestors, one of the most revealing is a biography. Biographies tell us where our ancestors lived, what they did for work and how they spent their free time. This write-up provides tips for creating a biography for your own research purposes.

Early life: This section covers all of the major events from birth until adulthood (or when we’re old enough to start making decisions for ourselves). These events could include things like moving cities or states because our parents got divorced; graduating high school; getting married.

What is a Biography?
A Biography is a written account of a person’s life. It is usually written by someone else, but it can also be written by the subject of the biography if they are still alive and able to write it. A biography can be in any format and length, but most biographies are quite long because they detail every aspect of a person’s life. It can be written by the person who is being described, or it can be written by a third person. A biography usually includes information about the subject’s childhood, family, education, career achievements, relationships, and more. It can help you understand how someone came to be who they are today.
