How to arrange a family tree for school?

Make a generic tree in the school will help such a drawing as:

  1. Initially draw a thick trunk with roots, from which 2 trunks drain thinner. Each of them, in turn, divide into 2 branches. The trunk and the lower branches are drawn with thicker lines, whereas the upper ones are penciled thinner.
  2. Throughout the crown of the painted tree, draw a cloud of different sizes. They can be located chaotically, but so that they can be "attached" frames with photos of relatives and their biographical data.
  3. After selecting a single format, draw the required number of frames starting at the bottom of the picture. So, at the very bottom should be a frame for a portrait and biographical data of the compiler of the family tree, in the second row from the bottom - frames for photographs of his mother and father, to the right and left of them - for brothers and sisters, if any. In the third row, there are frames for the grandparents of the child from the bottom, and in the fourth for grandparents and great-grandfathers. The framework for all other relatives, if necessary, is placed on the surface of the tree crown, taking into account family ties. It should be borne in mind that the frame of the originator of the ancestral tree should be the largest, and all the others should decrease as they move away from it.
  4. Color the resulting tree with bright colors.
