This week for homework, you need to choose a celebrity/someone who inspires you and create a fact file about their life. You can decide on your own categories. These might include name, age, place of birth, career details, special achievements, awards received etc. You may wish to sketch or print out a picture of your celebrity/inspiring person to accompany your work.
