If you’re looking for a simple way to talk about the newly elected 46th President & Vice President with your students, I have the perfect way to start! ❤️💙 I recently shared on my Instagram (@TeachingonSoda), THREE new amazing products all based around Joe Biden, his incredible wife Dr. Jill Biden, and of course soon-to-be Vice President Kamala Harris. Can you feel my excitement from here?
These biography products for reading and comprehension include non-fiction reading passages about each person, fun tri-fold response sheets that can be colored in, and answer sheets for easy grading. Students are more than welcome to fill in the tri-fold with info from the passages & quote sheet or they can research and find their own information! I’ve written the passages for 4th-6th grade levels so feel free to test their skills!
I’m selling each biography reading product for $3.25, that’s a digital download that can be printed off or used at home for distance learning.
There’s also a Biden & Kamala bundle for only $5.50 if you want to save $1 on your learning materials. These biographies are informative and educational for your students to practice reading comprehension and learn about current events!
In each of these biography activities, your students will practice finding information in nonfiction text and using it to fill out their response trifold!
Each biography tri-fold has:
- A cover page that can be colored in!
- The inside cover is for basic biological information about the person and space to draw a picture.
- The backside has a KWL Chart!
- On the inside left panel, there is space for famous quotes.
- The inside middle section is for the individual’s accomplishments.
- Lastly, the right panel is for a list of fun facts about that person
- Students can complete the trifold with the information from the passages and quote sheet or conduct their own research.

These products are rated with 5 out of 5 stars. Here’s what the teachers are saying:
This was perfect for my class!! My students kept talking about the VP and I knew I needed something to expand on it. My 5th graders loved the passage and filling out the tri-fold. I will probably look into others of these products if you make any more!
I love how you provided information along with the trifold, not many people do that.
This was perfect for my class! I loved that a lot of the trifold was open ended so they could choose and be creative about what they wanted to add. They loved being able to color it how they wanted as well. Thank you for this great resource.
