Additional Activity:
Since the events in the lives of celebrities are constantly changing, ask students to become reporters and write a “celebrity update,” adding any new information that they can find on a particular celebrity. A template for this is provided on page 29. Hold a guided class discussion in which the students share their information and talk about their findings.
