We like to read!

Monday is "Dress to support your favorite state" day!

On Monday (April 30, 2012) don't forget to dress in clothes that show which of the 50 states is your favorite!

You have worked very hard during our 50 states unit. It's now coming to an end... what better way to end our unit than to dress up to show which state is our favorite!!!

You can wear a jersey, a shirt, an outfit, a hat, or possibly do something like put flowers in your hair if Hawaii was your favorite state (just an idea!).

Remember, you may wear a hat, but only in our classroom.

Be creative and show us which state you love the most!!!

Our Interactive Regions

First, we labeled each state in the United States of America.

Then we began to look at each of the various regions within the United States. So far we have looked at 4 out of the 5 regions in the United States of America.

Miss Perchinski created a large map puzzle for us to match the states with their correct locations. We then labeled the capital of each state, in each region, as a class. Here is what we have created.
