If you lose this packet you can reprint it at home by going to Mrs. Robinson’s webpage.

Please use the attached maps to study at home. We will test 5–8 states at a time over the next 8 weeks so we cover all of the states, abbreviations, and capitals. The students will be given a map just like the study guide to fill in the name of the state. They will also need to be able to answer questions about abbreviations and the name of each states capital.

I will provide a word bank to help with spelling on each quiz. Each quiz is worth 100 points, for example 5 states = a total of 15 "questions" which averages out to 6.6 points per state, abbreviation, and capital.
