    Who Was Book Series: Presidents with Notetaking Printables

    Do you have a favorite book series in your classroom or homeschool?  Our absolute favorite book series for biographies is the Who Was….. Series.  There are so many different groups of people you can study with them: inventors, authors, sports figures, artists, musicians, etc.  And presidents!

    If you haven’t read one of these books, they are comprehensive biographies full of lots of historical sidebars that children ages 5-12 will enjoy and learn from.  Honestly, I learn a ton from them, too!

     

    (Note: This post contains affiliate links for your convenience.  Click here to read our full disclosure.)

    Since Presidents’ Day is coming,  I decided to make a list of all of the books in the series that covered US Presidents.  (See below.)  It was a little disappointing to find only 14 of our 46 presidents have a book in the series, so far.  Hopefully, more will be coming!  Although, it was exciting to find that five first ladies also have a biography in the series!

    Note Taking While You Read

    I went ahead and made printable bookmarks that can be used to take notes while reading the books.  There are also full size printable notebooking pages in case you want more room to take notes.

    You can download both of these at the bottom of the page.  They are great for teaching children note taking skills.  There are basic questions such as birth and death dates, years of presidency, etc.  But, there are also more open ended sections, such as ‘Childhood’ and ‘Presidential Happenings’ that require everyone to determine the most important information from the book to write down.

    Some children can easily pick out the big events, but some children will want to include every detail so coaching them through identifying big events vs. small details will be necessary.  You may want to complete the bookmark as a group or you may want to have older children complete their own
