United StatesAncestry and Family Tree Slideshow
We've gathered several different family tree templates, literature guides, and inspirational ideas to engage your students as they learn more about their ancestry. These activities will enrich students' understanding of their background and help them practice research and documentation skills. You can also extend your lessons to include math and language arts with these resources, which will help you address multiple intelligences and incorporate technology into your classroom.
