Purpose Of The Fair
The Geography Fair is a special time to celebrate what the kids have learned and the projects they’ve worked so hard on. Families can come and see their child’s work, cheer them on, and be part of the learning. Sharing projects helps kids practice their words, feel proud and confident, and make connections to the people and places in their community. Most of all, the fair makes geography fun and shows how the areas around us are important in everyday life.
