The South Korea Project -- Finished!

Caleb's 2nd big project of this school year was due today. He did an oral report about The Republic of South Korea. We did most of our work on the computer using a word pad program for typing out his speech and creating the bits and pieces for his poster board, but we also made a paper mache mask. He really got into this project and spent a lot of time working with me to get the information he was required to have. I'm really hoping he gets a good grade on this. I think he'd be crushed if he didn't. I also hope he could remember what the mask represented. It was a bit confusing and I sent the explanation sheet with it, but it wasn't something he'd be able to "translate/read" very easily.

The Korea Project

Caleb and I have been working together on his latest project for school. He had to pick a country to research and then write a one page speech, do a poster board that contained specific information AND create something that represented that country. These are the information pieces we made for his poster board. We spent a lot of time on the computer where I showed him how to use a word document, set spacing and font changing and adding pictures. All in all it ended up being a fun project, but a lot of work. I certainly don't remember 3rd grade being this detailed when I was there. Tuesday is the deadline and the only thing we have left to do is get these glued/taped/pasted down on his poster board. I'll share the completed parts of the project tomorrow.
