Wynna and Kaelah's Project Outline

How did the 1904 World's Fair impact the modern world?
We will present information on the fair. Who was there and different exhibits, foods and attractions. We will talk about the countries that were represented there, buildings built for it, inventions, improvements the fair made on our society and big events taken place there.
We are going to have a slide show type documentary showing while we are talking. There will be different pictures of the fair and other things that were there. We will then pass around a scrapbook of other pictures with explanations that we excluded from our verbal presentation.
