Thursday, March 5th, I was invited to a "Town History Fair" at Two Creeks School in Victor, Montana. I only had a half-hour to see all the boards at the fair and there was a great turnout of parents and friends making crowds at each board. I wish I could have taken photos of them all, but in the slideshow below you will see a few of the boards. These kids worked REALLY hard! More importantly, they had fun learning.
Each child picked a town, maybe they were born there, maybe visited it, maybe had family in the town. For the town, they researched, wrote a large paper, and made a reader board. Each child I photographed, except one, provided an oral presentation as well. I could tell they were very familiar with their subject - even had personalities pegged for some of the key residents. I was quite impressed with their knowledge and delivery. They found a connection and conveyed it to me in a personal and interesting manner. The child that didn't give an oral presentation was a first year student at the age of 5! Camas is her name and her project about Victor was fantastic. See the photos below.
