Family Memory Project Example Starter
Family Memory Project
I am Ms. Houselog, I am a sixth grade teacher at Van Allen. I chose to interview my 80 year old grandmother, Marge LoBianco. I wanted to interview her because I see a lot of her in myself. We met at her house in Dubuque, IA for 2 different sessions. I gave my grandmother questions in advance so that she would be prepared.
Margaret Elizabeth LoBianco (Bird) was born in Wauzeka, Wisconsin to Larry and Sherri Bird. She was the second oldest of 7 children. She had 4 brothers and 2 sisters. Her “favorite” sister was Patricia. She still spends lots of time with her today.
