About this worksheet
A colored three generation family tree: four grandparent boxes grouped by Mom's side and Dad's side, two parent boxes and a big Me box at the bottom, joined by family tree lines. Every box has lines for the name, birth year and where the person comes from, and the Me box adds a line for brothers and sisters. A good first family tree for second and third graders. It fits second and third graders, the age of the classic family tree assignment.
Tips for using it
- Fill in what you know in pencil first, then call a grandparent or older relative with your list of blanks. One phone call often fills a whole generation.
- Write women under their birth surname as well as their married name; it makes records much easier to find later.
- Use full dates in the form 12 Mar 1948 instead of 3/12/48, so nobody mixes up the day and the month.
- For a school project, ask the teacher whether pets, step-parents or guardians may be included. Most teachers say yes.
