Geography Fair
May 22nd, 2008 by davidsesin
Yes! Today is a great day, I’ve been waiting for this moment all day. Now I am really close to it. I’m going to an awesome event. There are many reasons it is awesome. First of all and most importantly, because there is free food from many different countries. Second of all you get to tease and challenge 7th graders by asking them hard questions, and take their food after that. I remember when I was in 7th grade I had the Geography fair too. And I also got the country I less expected. I didn’t even know it existed! Well it was pretty nice to get the country Moldova because I learned many new things. The hard thing was to get the information. I mean this country is so unknown that my spell checker, checks the word as if it was wrong! But there was many good things out of that. Sometimes when I was writing my report I couldn’t find information. The good thing about not finding information, was that when I told my teacher about it she said it didn’t matter and I didn’t have to put that information. The most challenging things were writing the report and then giving the oral report. What I didn’t like about this geography fair was that you had to work really hard on the report and when it came to the day of the fair you had to organize your booth and come dressed up, but then when people pass by they barely notice your report. I got kind of disappointed when people just came to your booth and they didn’t even notice the report. Something that I felt was really funny was that all the people ask the same questions. ” Did you like your country?”, ” What was the most interesting thing about it?”, ” What was the most challenging thing?”. And if people didn’t ask those questions they would just come into your booth get a flag and food and leave. Which I thought was kind of awkward. The next day you have to wake up and you are really tired. The good thing about the second day was that we had a grape fight when the teacher was not watching. Also the good thing about the second day was that we leaved early and I went to a friend’s house. The geography fair is a really cool fair, which I learned a lot from it. I think it was a really good idea to have this fair, because it teaches you how to work independently, and also you learn a lot of research skills.
