This booklet contains activities designed to investigate local history. The booklet's three activities will help young people learn fascinating stories from the past about their own neighborhoods. One activity is "Oral History," where a student can interview an older person about his or her experiences. Another activity is called "Building in Time," where a young person can study an historic building in the community. The third activity is called "Neighborhoods in Time," where a student can investigate changes in the community in history. Originally prepared as a community-involvement project for the Girl Scouts of the USA, these activities are appropriate for anyone interested in researching their community. (BT)
