- Here's a wealth of quick information about each state, designed for the beginning researcher and the elementary school student. There's one double-sided card for each state, printed on sturdy card stock, with photocopy permission for student use.
- You'll find the basic up-to-date facts and figures of each state's geography, climate, population, history, and economy --
- -- and you'll also find harder-to-get statistics such as the percent of the population born in the state and in the U.S., and median household incomes.
- There are the usual symbols such as state seal, flag, flower, and bird --
- -- and there are also a variety of other state symbols such as state reptile, state fossil, state beverage, etc. and a list of endangered species (mammals, birds, reptiles & amphibians).
- The government section keeps you current with the names, political parties, and terms of office of the governor and U.S. senators, plus the number of electoral college votes.
- You'll find some interesting museums listed, along with the national park sites --
- -- and the location and month of the state fair.
- And there's more!
- But even then, because one card could never hold everything you'd want to know --
- -- there's a list of Internet sites where you can get more good information about the state.
