Geography Fair Highlights

Today was the Geography Fair. It went great. There were 13 presentations in our room, and we finished in just about an hour.
Rabbit dressed up in her Cleopatra Halloween costume for her Ancient Egypt presentation. She really read well with lots of voice inflections and everything.

For Tigger and Pooh I drew pictures on a sheet of paper to remind them of what to say. Tigger was so excited (and just about acted like a Tigger for his whole presentation) that he forgot to look at his paper and kept coming to ask me what to say. The other adults thought that his excitement was great, even if he couldn't remember what he was going to say. It probably would have worked better if I had just asked him questions and let him answer.

Pooh did great. He stood up there and looked at his paper and pretty well remembered. I helped him when he couldn't quite remember. His only downside was he turned and spoke to his board when he was pointing out the animal pictures.

The room we had was a bit noisy with big vent fans running the whole time, so that made it hard. Everyone did a great job and had a good time.

Yesterday we started back on Week 23 and we'll finish it up tomorrow. It is nice to be back in our "normal" routine.

  1. Enjoying your blog, Trish... I can picture each child doing their presentations. I think I have a good idea who Tigger is!!
