Can you name each of the fifty states and their capitols?  

To kick off the unit on regions of the United States, fourth grade students chose a state, found out the capital and an interesting fact, copied a blank map and added this information to it.  This gave them an opportunity to find information on the internet and use it to produce a finished product.  Soon they will work with another student to become an expert on a state by researching, creating a Power Point presentation, and teaching the rest of the class about their state.

Special thanks to Miss Donlin for doing a fantastic job with the bulletin board. 

Next time you visit Macdonough School, stop and visit the bulletin board located directly across from the main office.  Take a minute to test your state trivia knowledge!
