Investigate Your State

We have been learning all about the States in the United States of America. Together as a class we have studied and discussed each state, now I would like you to complete this assignment individually. Everyone should have their own created colored map of the United States that we completed in class. Now I want you to look over the United States map and pick your favorite state, a state you have lived in, or just pick a state you rode through. I would like you to investigate and learn as much information about your selected state as you can. Then click here to obtain and complete the “Investigate Your State” worksheet.
