SUMMARY:Social Studies Fair
DESCRIPTION:Social Studies Fair\nby Southeast Columbia Co-op\nTuesday\, October 3 from 10am-noon\nAll Ages — 2.50/participant\n\nJoin Southeast Academic Co-op & Cola City Homeschoolers for the Annual Social Studies Share Fair! 806 Universal Drive Columbia. \nCome present projects and information about what you’ve been learning in history\, geography\, cultural studies\, sociology\, government\, and any other social studies topics. Here are a few ideas to get you started: \n\n\nDress like Abe Lincoln (and maybe even recite the Gettysburg Address) \nShow your salt dough map of South Carolina \nRead your report on nomads\n Build a model of a pyramid and show what’s inside \nSing a song from another country\n\nProjects can be something you already completed previously as a way to showcase learning that you’ve already completed. Or projects can represent current learning in progress. We recommend projects that are hands-on\, interactive demonstrations or have samples\, hand-outs\, giveaways. \nTables are provided\, but you can bring your own table for your display. Set up from (10 am-10:20 am). Presentation shifts will begin at 10:30 am. \nAll Participants will get certificate and prize. Please pre-register so we can prepare certificates and space.\nFees help cover the overhead costs of the facility use. \nPresentation format: The presenters get to tell about their project several times\, not just a one-time show-n-tell as participants meander and mingle. It’s also very relaxed style of presenting one-on-one\, rather than the formal “speech”. \nExamples: Here’s a peek at a few of the projects from previous share fairs.\n \nPre-register to participate in Social Studies Share Fair:
