Northeast

This week, we learned the capitals and states for the Northeast.

We will start studying in class. Students should also study at home. We talked about how capitals come first, how spelling counts when the words are provided for you on the page, and the practice test and final test will have the capitals and states in a different order.

We are learning different "ideas" to help our brains remember ...

MONTpleier, VerMONT both starts and ends with MONT ...
Annapolis, Maryland, we can imagine two friends, Anna and Mary are in Annapolis, Maryland ...
HARTford, Connecticut, we say, "I left my heart in Hartford, Connecticut"...
Dover, Delaware is an alliteration, two words starting with the same sound ...

There are likely more, but even have hints for four states is helpful.
