I think I'm going to do the 50 States for 1st grade social studies. That way, it sort of goes along with what my oldest is doing for American History, but a lot lighter than trying to cover the Civil War with a 6yo, kwim?
I'd like to use a lot of picture books to go along with this. Can we make a list of favorite picture books that have an identifiable setting within a particular state? Or a particular feature that reminds you of a particular state? For example, maybe Blueberries For Sal reminds me of Maine blueberries. I'll list the states later, and edit everyone's ideas into the OP, and whatever else I come up with. ![]() General Helpful Websites with book ideas for this-- http://wrappedinfoil.com/Wrapped_in_Foil/Home.html ...some of the books are novels for older children though Arizona-- website with a whole list Maine-- Blueberries for Sal For Missouri: http://www.amazon.com/Show-Me-Missou...5012184&sr=1-3 Texas-- http://www.amazon.com/This-Is-Texas-...5011956&sr=1-1 http://www.amazon.com/Is-Lone-Star-A...5012010&sr=1-2 Virginia-- When I was Young in the Mountains West Virginia-- When I was Young in the Mountains
