Stately Knowledge


The Stately Knowledge website was created by the Internet Public Library. Click on any of the fifty states to find pertinent facts and information for your research projects on the fifty American states. Students can create travel brochures, or a "Did You Know?" fact booklet to share with the class. You might want to try making a mix and match game to really test student knowledge, where certain vital facts are selected from a game card file (created by you or your students) and the student teams must match them up to the correct state within a set time.
