Third grade geographers are so excited to learn about the 50 United States! We have officially started our unit, and will choose which state each child would like to "dig into" on Tuesday!
This afternoon, geographers looked at one way the country is divided into regions. (Different people divide it in different ways, we teach just one example.) Ask your child to tell you where to find these regions on a map of The United States:
New England
Mid-Atlantic
Southeast
Midwest
West
Southwest
Pacific
In addition,it is important that all children know the following:
Our country is made up of 50 states.
Each state has a capital.
The capital of our country is Washington D.C.
We live in Massachusetts.
The capital of Massachusetts is Boston.
