Regions of the USA

We started to study the Northeast region before our vacation.  We will be doing a larger regions project  with the other fourth grade classes.  Students should be practicing the states and capitals for each region as we move through them.  There will be a map test where students will need to identify the states and capitals on a map.  They will be given a list of the capitals, but they will need to remember the names of the states.

All of the students have a Northeast map and set of flash cards in their homework binder to study with.  I have encouraged them to practice a little each night and we are doing a quick practice each day at school.

Our first region map quiz will be on Wednesday, May 6th on the Northeast.
