Social Studies: Regions of the USA

Here are some things that you should know about our upcoming unit of study:



1) We will study each region for 2 weeks. 
2) We will study the regions starting in the SE and moving in a somewhat clockwise rotation. Stay tuned to the newsletter for the current region of study. 
3) For each region, part of the quiz will be placing the states (for that region only) on a map. There will also be several other questions about the landmarks, landforms, culture, climate, etc. 
4) There is an awesome website where students can practice placing the states.  It is difficult to do well on the quizzes without studying the map for each region in advance.  


Please let us know if you have any more questions. :)
