In this one-time class, students will learn about the state of Michigan. My home state.

I will teach each state's capital, its famous landmarks, the state's flag, bird, flower, name abbreviation, historical landmarks found in that state, and much more.
 
I will begin by sharing three facts about the state of Michigan while the students try and figure out which state I am talking about based on the facts given. Once they figure out the state they'll be learning about I will continue to share fun and interesting facts regarding the state. For example, did you know Michigan has a floating post office?

Students will also learn a bit about the state landscape, history, what built it's economy, locals today and fun places to visit in the state.

Afterward, I will provide games, crafts, recipes, research prompts and worksheets to reinforce the information we learned. Some of the games we will play are Guess the state and Egg Carton Shake.

At the end of the class students will earn a postcards (pdf form) for the state of Michigan.

Can you collect all 50 states' postcards?

I have traveled extensively around the U.S with my two children for the past eight years visiting 48 U.S States and many National Parks. I can't wait to travel virtually and share what I have learned along my way with you.
