Midwest Region Unit {1 of 5 US Regions}

Help your students learn all about the MIDWEST REGION (Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin)

After many hours of searching for kid-friendly material on the MIDWEST REGION OF THE UNITED STATES to use with my 3rd graders, I decided to create a unit of my own. My goal was to create an INTERACTIVE, ENGAGING, and KID-FRIENDLY unit! That's how this resource was born.

THIS PRODUCT INCLUDES:

* 6-page informational booklet on the Midwest Region (interactive and kid-friendly)

* directions on how to assemble booklet

* pictures of student samples

* 9 colorful vocab. cards

* map test (Students identify the states located in the region)

* midwest regions unit test (end of unit test)

* Answer keys

At the end of this unit students will be able to:

-Identify the states in the Midwest region

-Describe the physical features present in the region

-Identify natural and man-made landmarks present in the region

-Describe the climate and vegetation in the region

-Identify the natural resources found in the region

This unit is ready-to-print and has been student tested + teacher-approved :)
