This weekend students will hopefully engage in conversations with family members and collect a family story. We are using <strong>Family Photographs<\/strong> to help us start the conversation and jog family memories. Students will try to find out what the oldest family photograph in their home is, and what is the story behind it. This will lay the foundation for family tree research next week and a challenge to see how far back students can trace their heritage.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2023\/11\/Screen-Shot-2023-11-16-at-3.05.06-PM.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-297143 alignleft lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2023\/11\/Screen-Shot-2023-11-16-at-3.05.06-PM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"553\" height=\"282\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2023\/11\/Screen-Shot-2023-11-16-at-3.05.06-PM.png 553w, https:\/\/abisoman.com\/broadcaster\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2023\/11\/Screen-Shot-2023-11-16-at-3.05.06-PM-480x244.png 480w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 553px, 100vw\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 553px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 553\/282;\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; This\u00a0 week\u00a0 in Grade 8 we\u00a0 started\u00a0 going\u00a0 deeper\u00a0 into\u00a0 our\u00a0 exploration\u00a0 of\u00a0 how human connections inform identity.
