History fair response!

4 - The four most interesting things that you learned about your topic in your researching.
  • I learned that maple syrup was originated by the aboriginals but then the Europeans stole the idea and made it their own.
  • I also learned that there's a thing called MSUD and it is a disease that is passed down through Generations of ancestors who had it.
  • Something else I learned, was that Canada produces 83% of the worlds maple syrup
  • Finally, I learned that during world war 2,maple syrup had to be rationed because there was only a limited supply.
    3 - Three things that you felt proud of on the day of the Fair
  • I was proud that I got all my work done on time for the history fair
  • I was also proud of when the judges asked us questins we were able to answere them
  • Finally, I was proud that even though My partner and I didn't make it to the regional history fair, we still learned a lot about our topic and we could use it for future reference.  
  • 2 - Two specific researching or presentation techniques that were helpful to make your project so wonderful.
  • Oue costumes added to the presentation because we really got into our characters
  • Also, as the fair went on, we started to remember our speeches so we didn't need our que cards for the whole fair.
    1 - One suggestion to make the History Fair even better in the future.   

  •  I think that it would be better, if we got to do topic that was out of the grade eight time line, because we would still be learning something and we would be happy with what we choose.
