US States Geography Game and Center

How many states can you cover before time runs out? In this face-paced Geography game (like the Perfection board game), students must cover as many states with the correct state shape to rack up as many points as possible. The winner with the highest score wins. This game can also be played solo, where students must beat their score.

This game is an excellent review after reviewing the fifty US states. Students will learn to recognize the shapes of states and easily identify them on the map.

This activity is a versatile tool that can be used for early finishers, centers, assessment, buddy groups, or to enhance your lessons on the US States. Its adaptability allows you to use it in various educational settings and for different purposes.

Constellation Scavenger Hunt 

Hi fellow teachers

I often do scavenger hunts in grade 4 to 7  classrooms. I find them particularly useful when I’m feeling tired or lacking energy (hey, we’ve all been there).

Why do I like them?

1. They are easy to set up, 
2. The students get to move around
3. The students are focussed & engaged
4. The students enjoy it 
5. The teacher is free to take notes, observe and give guidance, if necessary. 

It can look chaotic, but if observed you can see students really trying, really reading the information, and really collaborating and cooperating.

How it works:

There are two components:

1. A two page worksheet (print double-sided, one per student)
2. 12 informational panels that contain the answers to the questions (these need to be printed on one side, cut in half and pinned in various locations around your room).
3. Hand out the worksheet and off they go!

I have used this activity in a Grade 6 class.

The whole activity takes about 40 minutes and I might suggest watching a couple of Youtube videos on the topic to ‘get them in the mood.

Good luck!
