Family Artifact Assignment Instructions

Each student has access to a multitude of family heirlooms for which can be used as primary sources and much can be learned. Students will locate an object and will write a museum-style record including the provenance, physical description, personal history and memories, date or era, photographs, and the importance to American history from 1865-today for the object they select.

The paper must be at least 3 pages, utilize the template below, include photographs, be double-spaced, have margins of 1-inch, and include page numbers. The paper must be submitted as a Word document.

Explanation of sections:

1) Provenance: the earliest known history of the object. This should explain where the object came from including any previous owners, how it came to be owned by your family, where it was located before, where it was purchased/acquired, etc. This should explain a background of the object, but not a physical description of the object itself.

2) Physical description: This section should include measurements and dimensions, colors, materials the object is made of, and the condition of the object. Be sure to include as many specifics about the object as you can, so that the reader can picture what the object looks like.

Example: a child accidentally knocked-over the object, causing the large crack down the middle, or the family Bible was signed by two brothers, one chose to stay in Germany in 1938, while the other moved to the United States.
