One of the things I do on this site is pass along great interactive websites when I find them. Lately, I've been getting some great suggestions from the Interactive Whiteboards in the Classroom group on Diigo.
Caroline O'Bannon passed along two outstanding websites for learning and practicing U.S. geography.
The first site is called State Capitals and it allows you to practice identifying the U.S. capitals using a highly engaging interactive site.
The second site is called Place the State and it challenges students to drag and drop states to the correct location on a map of the United States. It even calculates how far off you are.
The Place the States site comes from Sheppard Software and is just one of many great flash applications. This is one of those sites you'll have to bookmark and explore on your own since it has way too many great activities to list here. It appears all the activities work great on your SMART Board interactive whiteboard.
Sharing is Caring!
