Description

This family history project is a great way for students to learn all about their family ancestry, culture, and traditions, while practicing oral language and writing skills in the area of Social Studies.

The project has a fun treasure theme to help engage students in learning. They create their own treasure box, which can be made from any container (a cardboard box, a shoe box, etc.) that they decorate.

Students are given the task of making and collecting special items to put inside their box, such as a picture of a flag where their ancestors are from, a drawing/photo of a family tradition, an artifact, etc. Please see the preview for the complete list of items.

Students do an oral presentation in front of the class, where they tell about their family history using each of the treasures in their box.

There is also a written report where students can write (or type) answers to questions about the items in their treasure box.

This download includes:

  • A digital version (Google Slides) and regular printable version (PowerPoint file)
  • Detailed project guidelines for students/parents
  • Two grading rubrics, one for the written report and one for the oral presentation
  • EDITABLE versions of the project guidelines and rubrics so that you can customize them for your own class
  • Writing paper that students may use for the written report
  • The digital version includes slides for students to type their written report
