What's in a Name: Learn U.S. History
How did the U.S. states get their names? This worksheet will teach your fourth grader about the meanings behind six U.S. states. But not so fast! Your child will have to unscramble the mixed-up state names to figure out the answer, drawing up on his word recognition, reasoning and social studies skills.
