Plan a class party where the students each come as an ancestor of theirs. They can wear costumes, and each will tell the rest of the class a little bit about the person they are dressed as. Previous to the party there are activities that can be done, such as writing about the person they will be.
We have had students come as a flapper, Butch Cassidy, an Indian, a mom, etc. It was lots of fun.
