About this worksheet
A colored family tree for blended families: two homes side by side, each with a parent, a dashed box for a step-parent or partner and that parent's grandparents. The Me box asks which home you live in, and five sibling boxes have full, half and step check boxes so every brother and sister has a place. For grades 2 to 5. It is a good fit for third grade social studies and heritage projects, around ages 8 to 9.
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.
