This year’s 6th grade International Fair, on May 23, will focus on nations with significantly Muslim populations. Teams of students will work together to learn about the cultures of ten different nations around the world. Each team will then make a multi-faceted presentation of what they learn and discover together to their classmates, parents, and friends.
Learning should include a variety of information about the geography, government, customs, cultural elements, and history of the assigned nation.
Student groups are expected to prepare an attractive and informative display about their assigned nation (including an area where visitors could sample two or three dishes from the culture), and to present a cultural presentation that would include elements such as appropriate costumes, music, dance, poetry, story-telling, games, etc.
