This activity is an engaging and accessible way for your students to practice and strengthen their knowledge of American geography as well as states and capital cities!

Students will be tasked with identifying a mystery state that can be only be solved through the process of elimination. They will be prompted to use a political map of America to solve various puzzles and eliminate 49 states until they have only one left, thus solving the mystery.

This is a great way to review states and capital cities and basic map skills. The print version requires that students have access to a physical map but there is a link to a map in the digital version.

THIS PRODUCT INCLUDES:

• FIVE puzzles for students to solve using a political map of the United States and their knowledge of American geography
• Answer Key
• Link to Digital Version

I do my best to make sure every product is free of typos or mistakes, but please feel free to message me with any corrections or concerns.
