“Statetris” is an online game tetris game that drops states instead of shapes. Really nice game to help students learn where states are located in a fun way. The variations of the game as difficulty increases are really cool and will certainly challenge your students.

One note however, there is a quick ad (for HP I think). Use at your own discretion.

I’m adding this to my “America: Fifty Nifty States” LiveBinder.

Today I added to my “Phonics and more” and “America: Fifty Nifty States” LiveBinders. I love filling up my LiveBinders with resources that I can use and share with others.

I started the phonics binder earlier in the year because I taught a reading group of 2nd grade emergent non-readers and being the art teacher I didn’t have very many materials to work with. Well…as of a couple of weeks ago nearly half our school classrooms were regrouped and I no longer teach reading. I am now testing students prior to their IEP conferences as well as starting up my Poetry Club again. I sure do miss those second graders but I still see them for weekly art classes and of course I will be testing them. At a school like mine you have to be very flexible.

I started my America: Fifty Nifty States” binder recently because in recent years our school has had an “United States Day”. I wanted to supply the classroom teachers with resources to help their students prepare for the big day. Well…little did I know (until yesterday) that we are not having a United States Day but instead we are having an “International Day”. So now it’s back to the LiveBinder drawing board finding resources for “International Day”. Like I said at my school you have to be flexible.

Long story short…No need to worry…I will continue updating these binders and they will remain public. I am happy to see that fellow educators can use them and who knows I may teach second grade reading again and next year we may be back to “United States Day”. This time because of LiveBinders I will be prepared for both!

America’s Fifty Nifty States LiveBinder

If you are looking for resources to help you teach lessons about the 50 states you may find what you need in my LiveBinder “America’s Fifty Nifty States”. In it you will find resources galore for each state, including maps, worksheets, coloring pages, fun facts, folklore, recipes, games and much more.

My school has a “United States Day” each year where classes present a state to the rest of the school. I put this binder together for them and also want to share it with you. Hope you find this resource useful.
