Embassy Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Can anyone recommend a book, books, workbooks, or other resources they have used to learn about the different states and provinces that are appropriate for 5th grade and up? I expect I'll need a book on the states and one of the provinces. I don't want anything too formal or something that is supposed to take all school year. Any ideas?

Susie in MS Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 If you want something that will teach states/capitals and locations To State It Simply, It's a Capital Game looks great! Rainbow sells the b/w hard copy your child can color. If you want full color Currclick sells one you can download as part of a 2 game set for the price of the one hard copy.

SABE Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 (edited) I'm planning to use this workbook for next school year: www.amazon.com/gp/product/158037140X/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&seller= There is a two page spread on each state, one page giving information and the other page asking 10 short answer questions about the previous page. There is a little bit of mapwork involved as well. Edited May 14, 2012 by SABE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleIzumi Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 There's an iPad app called Stack the States that's fabulous. It doesn't address the provinces though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
