The project is about the Canadian provincial flags and the Coat of Arms, and the Canadian flag. I did this because it was an interesting topic to do as I wanted to find out about the history of all the flags in Canada. Not that many people in Canada know about this topic because the different cultures here don't get to know that much about our Flags and Coat of Arms..
The things I learned while doing this project:
 | how many provinces are in Canada and the Flag and Coat of Arms for each one |
| what the coat of arms represent |
| why they used those colours in the Flag and Coat of Arms |
| who made them, etc. |
Poster display: (left image) I drew all of the flags, and it was fun doing it. Now, I know the colour, design and history of all the flags by heart. The information was on the background of each flag and what it represents.
Table display: (right image) represents the Canadian relief map and locates the various flags in a visual context.
Reflection on Heritage Fair project: I didn't win in the Winnipeg Regional Heritage Fair 2000. But, it was worth it because I had fun finding the history of the flags and arms of Canada.
