God Bless the USA State Capitals & Abbreviations

Description

Learn Geography the Fun Way!

God Bless the USA State Capitals & Abbreviations opens up with an explanation of capitals, capitols, and the difference between them, as well as why we use state abbreviations. From there, the book is divided up into the following sections: Southern states, Mid-Atlantic states, New England states, Southwest states, Western states, Pacific states, and Territories.

At the beginning of each section, students learn about the capital and capital of each state and the five territories. Matching state capitals or abbreviations to their maps is easy and fun for children and even teens. Created to supplement God Bless the USA Exploring States & Territories, God Bless the USA State Capitals & Abbreviations helps students get familiar with all the capitals and abbreviations for the first time or as a review. If you are memorizing state capitals and abbreviations, then these printable pages can be used over and over to help with the memorization process.
