Florida History Festival

Each students in R's class were required to choose a topic and write a report in their Social Studies. They also participated in the Florida History Fair. It was held at the social hall at their school. The students were dressed up, had props and explained to younger students all kinds of interesting facts about Florida History. R wrote a report about Daytona 500 and racing in Florida.

The following were the guidelines:
- 3 pages, typed using font 14 and double spaced
- must create a visual fair like posters, costumes, food, dioramas
- explain their research to other students through visuals and knowledge
- prepare a short speech...use index cards...less nervous when the visitors arrive
- must turn in a written report
- receive a grade for the report and performance at the fair
- expected to act professionally, polite and informative...

She was happy when she came home. She got an A on her project. Good job Reina!
