Goldfarb Virtual Memoir

http://www.geni.com/family-tree

This is my family tree which has been extended from the requirements from 9th grade Human Geography. It shows how the Cuban Revolution sets the stage for other revolutions, which sets the stage for my family's migration. This relates to Waiting for Snow in Havana because Fidel's revolution is the reason my family is what it is if not for Fidel my parents would not have met.

  1. That's so cool that you have a family tree to keep your family's past together. It's also pretty cool how you can connect it to Cuba which we are studying. Good job I think.

  2. this family tree is amazing and it's so cool that you could track so many relatives since you all live scattered around the world. I like how your virtual memoir deals with a comparison between your life and the Cuban revolution; great idea!

  3. Hey Goldie! I like how you could connect your own family to the events in the book. :) It's really cool that you have a personal question that combines what we read with something that is actually personal instead of just doing a regular "research project" like we already do so much in school.

  4. At least you can say that some good came out of Castro lol. But I like how you connected your family tree to the Cuban Revolution by stating reasons for certain things that determined your family's history, in particular your life, that had to do with Castro.
