County Reports of Utah
This year we will be studying Utah Counties. Each student will present a county report.
Students may use any source they choose--books, brochures, letters to the
county seat or the Internet. A great
website to consider is www.uen.org.
Each student will need to give an oral report in
class (on Thursday’s). The students should
tell about the county--they should not read the report. Students have two options for presenting
their reports: PowerPoint with a minimum
of 10 slides or a poster display. Each
student will need to design a flag to represent their county. Students must be prepared to discuss why they
chose their design.

Students can then do something fun after they present - like give a STORE BOUGHT TREAT (no homemade treats) that represents their county.
