Perhaps an easier way of thinking about this is 'What makes this person so important?'
A good way to start is to make a list or summary of all of the important events or contributions your notable has made - use a new page in your workbook or folder. Use bullet points or headings if you like.
Then elaborate. Start adding details and telling the story of the people, ideas and events that shaped your notable's destiny and made them an incredible human being.
Remember to focus on learning as much as you can about your notable as in a matter of weeks you will be writing a speech to present and preparing yourself for questions from an audience! By researching this deeply, you are preparing for your presentation!
