FAMILY TRAITS

Almost everyone in "our town" came from somewhere else. We looked into our families and tried to find out where they originally came from. We found that families that come from different areas of the world have different physical traits. These traits include hair color, eye color, and right or left handedness. The students made a family tree and included these traits. They then highlighted the family members with traits matching their own. From this they traced their hereditary line for these genes.
