TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sheri M. says, "My students loved learning about the various regions in the US and then completing these brochures as a culminating activity. I loved how they were editable so that I could change a few headings to meet my criteria.  Highly recommend this product!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Suzette O. says, "I used this as an end of year activity after state testing! It's surprising to know how little the kids know about our U.S. They had fun researching the different regions and learning about new places."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Heather D. says, "I used this resource as a way to organize our 2nd grade unit on Native American cultures.  We learned about different tribes based on the region of the US they inhabited.  The book was easy to edit to meet our needs and was a fun way for the students to organize the information.  Great product!"
