Seneca’s South Campus
Tours the World: Annual 6th Grade Geography Fair
Over fifty countries were represented by an enthusiastic group of students ready to share the customs and cultures of their selected countries. The students spent eight weeks researching and preparing their projects. Included in their research was information on the history, government, culture, currency and climate of their region. The students each created a Google Slide presentation for their country, wrote an informative speech, created a visual display of their findings and presented the information to their peers. The Geography Fair served as the culminating activity for this unit of study. Each student was given a passport to fill out as he/she visited several countries of his/her choice. The Geography Fair provided the students with an opportunity to not only share what they learned but to also explore other countries while learning from their fellow classmates. There was an outpour of support from parents and community members visiting the Geography Fair. The sixth grade teaching team is proud of the students’ dedication to this project and the academic progress made. It was a great day at SGS with fun had by all!
