We each come together with different characteristics. Many of those characteristics come from our family. Our family share many stories, recipes, pride and a great sense of our identity. Family trees also give students a chance to learn history and culture in a personal way. All students at Lakeland Hills Elementary will be given information to go on an expedition with their family and create a family tree to share here at school.

Kindergarten & First Grade
Kindergarten & First Grade
Kindergarten and First Grade students will be bringing home a ziplock bag with 3 people sticks, instructions (suggested) and a plain piece of paper.
Your family tree can be as simple as purely decorating the people, gluing them to the paper, writing first names, and in the bottom corner writing room number or teacher name.
A more in-depth version would be adding a few more members and perhaps a little story or recipe.
An extended version could be a tri-fold poster board with the paper in the middle and many extensions of family.
OR
In any creative, fun and interesting way that your child would like to share their genealogy and culture with our school.
DUE by Oct. 25th in the library (remember to include name and room number or teacher)

2nd & 3rd Grade
Second and Third Grade students will be bringing home a Ziploc bag with 1 stick person, instructions (suggested), sample letter to a family member, and a plain piece of paper.
Stories enlighten our lives and bring us togetherness, joy and living history. It is for this reason that our second and third graders are being asked to find out stories about their families and include them on a family tree. Like in the book "Flat Stanley" by Jeff Brown, student may mail their "stick them" to a relative and have that relative return the stick person with a story to go on the family tree.
The family tree could be basic: child>mom, dad & a family history story on the white paper with information from the letter sent to a family member included (recipe, story, more of the family tree).
The family tree could be a little more detailed by carrying it further with: child>mom, dad>mom's mom, mom's dad, dad's mom, and dad's dad. & family history stories on the white paper with information from the letter sent to a family member included (recipe, story, more of the family tree)..
An extended version could be a tri-fold poster board with the paper in the middle and many extensions of family and several stories and recipes

4th and 5th Grade
Fourth and Fifth graders are bringing home a Ziploc with 1-3 leaves (hole for child's face), 1 plain paper and instructions for creating a Family tree.
As we share our stories with one another we find that we have many of the same likes and dislikes as well as some of the same cultures. In fourth and fifth grade we discuss the difference between emigrant (someone born in a different part of a country that moves to a new part --like the pioneers on the Oregon Trail--4th grade) and immigrant (someone born in a different country and moving to this country-- like the early colonists of the 13 colonies/ early US--5th grade). Whether we are native, emigrants or immigrants our history tells us more about our identity.
The family tree could be basic: child>mom, dad & labeled if Emigrant or Immigrant & a family history story on the white paper.
The family tree could be a little more detailed by carrying it further with: child>mom, dad>mom's mom, mom's dad, dad's mom, and dad's dad. & family history stories, & labeled if Emigrant or Immigrant .

Our identities are formed from our lineage, our likes and our experiences. Please participate in sharing your child's identity. Not only is this activity fun, creative and family uniting; it also covers standards for Social Studies, an introduction to Digital Citizenship and is a great way for those working with your child to know them better.
