About Flash Cards:

Flash Cards are small cards that have a little amount of information on them. These cards are held up for students to see to help with learning. Flash Cards can be used in groups as drill activities, or alone for private study. Although Flash Cards can contain any form of information, for the purposes of this resource, each Flash Card contains an image of the American State, its name and its capital. Overall, Flash Cards are used as a learning drill to help with memorization through repetition. Students can quickly and easily learn the American States and their capitals by using Flash Cards in their everyday study.

Flash Cards exercise the mental processes of students’ brains. With repeated practice, students will learn to associate words with their spelling.

About the American States and their Capitals:

The United States of America is separated into 50 geographic locations known as states. 48 of the states are located between Canada and Mexico. Alaska is found in the northernmost point of the continent, whereas Hawaii is in the mid-Pacific Ocean. The United States of America was born when 13 colonies won their independence from Great Britain during the American Revolutionary War. These 13 colonies were Virginia, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, North and South Carolina, and Georgia. From 1791 to 1912, the remaining 35 states joined the Union, from Vermont to Arizona. In 1959, Alaska and Hawaii were the last two states to join.
