New England and Mid-Atlantic EASEL and PDF Differentiated US Geography Workbook

This is my North American Geography Workbook Unit 1 of 4. Unit 1 covers The New England and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. These are great for Social Studies and content-based literacy in ELA.

• Do you need something students can do independently?
• Need printable AND digital options?
• Differentiated resources at the 3rd-8th grade level?
• Want a way to integrate literacy into your Social Studies classroom (or content-based writing into English class)?

Look no further!

You get both the digital, Easel and PDF workbook that includes:

1. State research pages that include the state flag, symbols (animals, birds, flowers, etc.), outline, and maps
2. State note-taking page with 5 comprehension questions about the state
3. State writing prompt with graphic organizer, drafting space, and editing checklists
4. Binder cover and coloring page
5. Study guide
6. Final assessment (printed separately)
7. Rubric and student peer editing checklist (printed separately)

The entire workbook is differentiated at 3 different levels.

This is a great resource to use as warm-ups, stations, or activities.

A pacing guide is included for how to use the workbook for either a 7-week or 14-week cycle with tips for both classroom and homeschool teachers.
