I understand the hold family tree thing but, I was woundering could I just leave my father part out because,I really communicate with him nun at all so I don't no anything about that side.
ReplyDeleteHey kandystarburst, i think you should attempt to talk to someone on your father's side. You may find that as you begin your search of your father's side that there is someone on your father's side that you have commonalities with. You may not know your father that well but attempt to get to know him for the sake of this project. You may learn something intricate about yourself, so don't give up!!!
ReplyDeleteIs it okay to write the list on the back of the poster?
