Miniprojecto: mi árbol geneológico

Product:  You will create a poster depicting a simple family tree which adheres to the following requirments:

  1. The poster must be at least 16X11 inches long (small poster size)
  2. Your family tree does not need to be complete and need not include both sides of your family, but should contain at least 10 individuals and 3 generations.
  3. the title across the top should be 'mi árbol geneológico' and should have a NEATLY drawn and labeled tree.  NO pencil!
  4. You may use photos or sketches/drawings for the family members, but at least three family members should be with a clear photo above the name.  The rest can be drawn if you don't have photos.
  5. If you are uncomfortable using your own family, you may invent a family.  However, if you use any celebrities, their identities and photos must be pre-approved by the teacher.  Anything that is not classroom appropriate or that may offend is not usable.  Otherwise, just invent names and use magazine clippings for the 3+ photos.
  6. In addition to the person's name, you should include underneath their relationship to you (mi tío, etc.), in Spanish, and at least two descriptive characteristics (simpático, pelo largo).  The more variety here, the higher your score.  See the handout for a sample of how this should look.

computer option:  If you want to use Word, or a family tree software program, you may do so, but all of the above requirments still apply.
