This document provides prompts for a family hobbies assignment. Students are asked to make a list of their own hobbies and their family members' hobbies. They should consider if there are any differences between generations. Students are then prompted to imagine their family living in the past, such as 1980, 1960, or 1900, and how their hobbies may have differed due to the time period. For a report, students should discuss their current family's hobbies, differences between generations, hobbies of families in the past, and how their family may have been different if living in another time period.
