Description
This project encourages students to learn about a specific state in Mexico. They will work in groups (or individually) to research their state and then they will make a mini poster explaining what they learned.
I typically use this in my Spanish classroom to supplement a Mexico geography unit. However, this product is designed to also be used in a Social Studies geography or history unit about Central America and/or Mexico.
This product is in ENGLISH (not Spanish)
These are some topics that the students will learn about their state:
- Location
- Population
- Climate
- Geographic Features
- History of State
- Government
- Economy
- Culture (food, pastimes, etc.)
Included in this product:
- Teacher Directions-including prep info and materials needed
- Teacher procedure.
- Student Research Packet-includes 30 questions about their state.
- List of potential states to research.
- Student poster project directions and rubric
- Teacher Tips
To do this project, students will need:
- Pencil
- Copy of “States of Mexico” packet (INCLUDED) for each student
- Ability to research (i.e. chromebook. device, etc.)
- Small blank poster board (I usually just use colored printer paper)
- Coloring utensils:colored pencils, markers or crayons
