    1. Exhibiting His tory It’s More Than a Display Board! Chicago Metro History Education Center 2005

    2. Think of the History Fair exhibit as a mini-museum.

    3. In a museum visitors are greeted with a panel that announces the main idea of the exhibit and sets the stage for what will follow.

    4. The exhibit designer creates a space that uses eye-catching graphics that reflect the theme, time period and topic. Colors, shapes and other visual cues organize different sections of the exhibit.

    5. Subtitles and different shapes and sizes of labels also act as visual cues. The labels tell the story.

    6. Each segment (or section) of the exhibit tells a different part of the story.

    7. A variety of visually engaging and relevant primary sources show what the text tells.

    8. History Fair exhibits function the same way.

    9. When you do a History Fair exhibit, you are museum curators and designers.
