Students complete geographic detail sentences and match four states to their regions. Part A has nine fill-in-the-blank problems about the Missouri River, the Rocky Mountains' region, and the names of the five Great Lakes. Part B is a matching activity connecting Texas, Maine, Kansas, and California to the Southwest, Northeast, Midwest, and West regions.
State-to-region matching builds the mental map students need to place geographic features in their correct locations.
