December  Challenge

Einstein Lunch: December 20

We will be studying geography and map skills this month, so December’s Einstein challenge is to learn the location of each of the fifty states. You will need to study the states and practice at home. To pass off this month’s challenge you will be given a blank map and will need to correctly label all fifty states in class. You will not need to worry about spelling- as long as I can read it, you will get credit! It will be best to practice each day and learn a few states at a time. This will help you learn and retain the information better. Don’t procrastinate this one! Start studying today!

​

The internet is a great resource and study tool. There are lots of fun “50 states” games online to help you study.

The first link below is to a song that helps you learn the states by location... Use that one for sure! Check out these sites:
