And we're off again!

On Monday, we will leave Charleston, WV and the SE region on our "road trip" for Annapolis, Maryland and the NE region of the United States. So far, we've logged 3,044 miles! We have been keeping track of our mileage each day and using it to practice estimation and mental math strategies. Here are the states we will visit in the NE: Connecticut (CT) Delaware (DE) Maine (ME) Maryland (MD) Massachusetts (MA) New Hampshire (NH) New Jersey (NJ) New York (NY) Pennsylvania (PA) Rhode Island (RI) Vermont (VT) Please have your student practice identifying these states on a map. Your student needs to know either the correct abbreviation or the state's name for the test on Thursday, May 17. We would love to get our Alimacani families involved in our road trip! Do you have any family in this region? If so, where? Are you familiar with this region? What should we know about it (landforms, climate, natural resources, culture, etc) or visit? Feel free to post comments below! Also, if you have any pictures, you can e-mail them to me, and I will post them on our blog! :-)
