Heraldry Assignment

What is your family crest?

Step 1:  go to one of these two sites
     -Heraldry Site
     -House of Names Site
  
Step 2:  research your last name on the chosen site.  If you can't find YOUR last name, try your mother's maiden name.

Step 3:  choose your favorite coat of arms, copy and paste it into a word document, and enlarge it to fill the page.  Enter down onto the next page and type your last name (or whatever name is on the crest your chose) in "Old English" font, size 72.

Step 4:  go to Family Crests Site.  Research the symbols, line designs, and colors of your crest.  On a lined piece of paper, list three features of your crest and the associated meaning.

Step 5:  on the same paper, answer this question:  How does the motto and symbolism connect to you and your family today?
