Fifty States: Maine (Printed Books)

Join us as we wander through the Pine Tree State! On the next stop of our Fifty States road trip, we will drive, sail, and hike by scenic views of steep mountains, coastal-town lobster boats, and blankets of wild blueberries. We will spot the mighty moose, visit the L.L. Bean flagship store, and learn how Mainers deal with some pretty cold, wintry weather. We’ll also meet beloved children’s author E.B. White and see how the state inspired his children's classics like Charlotte’s Web and Stuart Little. We will talk about the fishing, logging, manufacturing, and tourism industries that are so important to Maine as well. Student Book activities include mapping, lesson summaries, the science behind papermaking, Atlantic puffins, folklore, a poetry study, lobster habitats, and budgeting. The unit is designed to cover all your subjects (math available separately). This listing is for the printed books. If you prefer a digital option, a digital version is available separately.
