MW Scavenger Hunt

All students have been assigned a state from the NE to report on. I have given them 3 sheets of information to look up. I allowed a week of social studies classes to do research and complete the sheets. Most students are finished with that part of the project. Those who are not quite done must finish at home. In addition to the written report, students must also make a map of their state. Here are the requirements:

*Make a map of the assigned state out of any material other than paper. Some ideas are clay, play dough, styrofoam, cake, wood and any other creative ideas you can come up with.

*Include the name of the state, the major rivers and lakes, mountains (if any), the capital city and several other major cities.

*Include a map key.

*Your name

*Show quality and neatness

*Correct spelling

*Use color

*Be creative and have fun
