Midwest

We have begun our next Social Studies unit- The Midwest.  Yesterday, we learned about the land in the Midwest and how we are known for our plains and lakes.  We also labeled a map yesterday in class and came up with ways to learn their locations.  We sent it home yesterday.  Today, we learned about the forests and prairies.  We also cut out flashcards to bring home to help us practice our states and capitals.  During this unit, your child will be required to learn the locations of each of the Midwestern states and each capital.  Please practice the state locations and capitals with your child.  This will help him towards the end of the unit.
