Work Days
We will have work days scheduled where you will be able to work on your memory book in class. You will also be expected to work on this at home.
Pace yourself... DO NOT wait until the last minute to finish this!!
Mandatory Page Requirements
1 . Family Tree
Your family tree needs to have at least three generations of your family – my tree has my grandparents, my parents, and me. Providing a fourth or fifth generation will be considered above and beyond. Also giving the birthplace of each member in your tree will help your grade. You may need to ask Mom and/or Dad for help with all of the details! Below is an example…you may create your own as you like…be creative .
2. All About Me
This page should contain at least three paragraphs, 8-10 sentences each ( DOUBLE SPACED) about you and who you are. Use the “10 things you should know about me” journal entry for ideas. You can include normal facts or you can include things that someone may not know about you.
This page needs to include a picture of you – digital, adhered, or scanned in.
