We just finished our history fair projects and presented them to 3 judges. My partner was Jumanh. We did or project on powwows. Our teachers Miss Pollock decided to get us to do a 4,3,2,1.
4. The four most interesting things that you learned about your topic in your researching.
We learnt that a lot of the powwows have traditional dances like the hoop dance.
We also learnt that native people and non native people can come to watch the powwows.
I learnt from our friend Josh who we interviewed, has had the tradition of going to powwows passed on from his mom. And we decided to elaborate on that and found out that powwows are passed on from generation to generation.
I also learnt that a raven feather means mom.
3.Three things that you felt proud of on the day of the Fair.
I felt proud that me and Jumanh looked like we knew what we were doing because, we tried to get peoples attention and our speech was well thought out.
I was proud of our poster because it was very noticeable because of the boot we had and the colours.
I also thought of asking the audience some questions to see if they really were paying attention which is another thing I'm proud of.
2. Two specific researching or presentation techniques that were helpful to make your project so wonderful.
We had to know what we wanted to research. So ask questions you don't know the answer to and just research from there.
We also used books just to learn more about powwows.
1.One suggestion to make the History Fair even better in the future.
I think it was already awesome but maybe we should have a contest like the best looking costume or best looking poster, that kind of stuff.
Thanks Miss Pollock for going insane to get the history fair together! :)
