Why FWISD Elementary History Fair?

• Teachers and librarians play a critical role in increasing FWISD Elementary History Fair campus representation at the district level.  We invite you to be a part of the effort to lead our school district in creating this invaluable experience  for students  and to promote FWISD learner outcomes. Will you accept the challenge?

• For grades K-5, FWISD curriculum calendars have allocated days of instruction and resources to support student participation in the Elementary History Fair.  Students will have the opportunity to engage in research and project development experience, which incorporates the lesson structure from our FWISD Instructional Framework. These days give you the opportunity to apprentice students into disciplinary literacy, while providing culturally responsive brain based pedagogy to engage students in social studies! Please contact the Social Studies Department with questions or for support.
