Website: State Facts

STATE FACTS from United States Census Bureau is an easy-to-use source for information about US states.
This interactive website provides information for each US state and territory. Users can click on the place on the map or select a location from the pull-down menu.
In addition to the state facts, the website also provides activity ideas for teachers.
Librarians will find this to be a fun way for elementary students to review information about US states. Youth will enjoy clicking on each state for information. Connect the information with a math activity on building graphs. Or, weave the resource into your data literacy curriculum.
To visit the website, go to https://www.census.gov/schools/facts/.
