Have your students create a collaborative poster and learn about Arthur Miller in a new and engaging way! This hands-on project invites students to research the life and legacy of one of America’s greatest playwrights and showcase their findings through a creative author biography poster. Students will explore Arthur Miller’s background, his acclaimed works, and his influence on American theater while strengthening their collaboration and communication skills.
Working in groups, students will research Arthur Miller, record their discoveries in the designated sections of the poster, and color or paint each piece to bring the project to life. Once the six pages are taped together, they form a cohesive and visually striking display. The finished poster measures 28" x 15", can be printed on regular copy paper or cardstock, and will last for years if laminated.
This resource includes step-by-step student directions, an author study project rubric, a graphic organizer, six blank coloring pages that combine into one complete poster, an Arthur Miller author study answer key, and a fully completed example showing both text and color.
This collaborative author study is a perfect addition to any literature unit from The Crucible to Death of a Salesman and beyond!
