 Click here to see the "real" numbered maps that will be used in each of the four tests.

Click here to print up a list of each state and each capital tested in each of the specific four tests.

Click here to get a list of popular on-line games and flash card making websites that help when studying for the states and capitals.

I made Kahoots with maps from up above, what a great way to practice:

Test 1 on Kahoot

Test 2 on Kahoot 

 Test 3 on Kahoot 

Test 4 on Kahoot with all 100 questions.


Do you have an  Ipad or a tablet?  Don't forget to try some of the many apps that are out there to help study your states and capitals.   Try this link as a starting point if you have an IPAD.   Try this link as a starting point if you have an adroid tablet.

For the parents:
As I stated back in August when we began discussing this project with the students, historically there is no middle grades on these tests.  Students either prepared and memorized their states and capitals and earn 90% or above while students that fail to prepare "earn" a 50% or much lower.  It is multiple choice identification on a blank/numbered map, so you either chose to study ahead time and memorized them or you achieve an epic failure.
