Fall Break Trip

In social studies we study the five regions of the United States. To make this more enjoyable for the kids, I created a project for them to research one region in groups of six. I am "funding" a fall break trip for each group to their region, so they are busy planning where they want to go. This activity encompasses a lot of skills from nonfiction reading, map skills, teamwork, and organizing information in a presentation. They are having a great time with this project!
