“A Fair to Remember”

This is a photo of me by my display board at the history fair that we participated in last night. My history project was about Sequoyah, the inventor of the Cherokee syllabary. A syllabary is different from an alphabet because there is one symbol for each syllable; but in the alphabet, we use more than one symbol for each syllable. Sequoyah was born near Tuskegee, Tennessee and died near Tyler, Texas. Sequoyah’s real name was George A.Gist, but most people call him Sequoyah. I call this photo “A Night To Remember.”

This is a photo of my brother and me holding our certificates from the history fair.
