UTAH HISTORY FAIR 2012

THE UTAH HISTORY FAIR TURNS KIDS INTO HISTORIANS!!!

Since its creation during the autumn of 1980, the Utah History Fair,
Utah's National History Day affiliate, (www.nhd.org),  has
helped tens of thousands of Utah’s students, grades 4-12, learn, experience, and
enjoy history.  The  Utah History Fair encourages participating students to
explore  an area of history that reflects their curiosity, locality, and/or 
heritage; students often research and present topics that reflect their 
personality.  Students then create an entry in a category of their choice.  The categories are:

        WEBSITE (Students must use the NHD website editor to create websites)
        HISTORICAL PAPER
        DOCUMENTARY
        EXHIBIT
        PERFORMANCE

Teachers, parents, and student participants are encouraged to become familiar with and follow National History Day's rules and guidelines. 

In Utah, students first compete at the school level.  The  top projects in each category at the school level then participate at a regional  competition.  There are nine regions in Utah in 2011-2012.  Winning projects at the regional level then compete at the Utah State History Fair Contest.  The top  two projects from each category are invited to attend the Kenneth E. Behring  National History Day Contest.
