Ms. Loring - 3rd Grade
Social Studies State Project
In Social Studies we have been learning about the geography of our country and the different regions of the United States of America. For this project each child will be assigned a state to learn about. Your child is to create a poster about this state. The poster must include the state’s: region, capital city, notable land formations or features, population, state bird, state tree, population, and any major industries. The students will be researching their state at school and writing a research paper about their selected state. The poster is to accompany the paper and should highlight the information in the paper.
Please feel free to add more information if desired – the above list is just what MUST be included.
The project is due Wednesday January 30th.
