Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Students will research and record key geographic and demographic facts about Mississippi, including its capital, largest city, population, and area.
Students will identify the U.S. states bordering Mississippi and describe its climate and territory.
Students will investigate Mississippi's economy and name additional cities and capital-city attractions through independent research.
Teaching tips
Assign this as an independent or homework research task, since every line is left blank for students to fill in from their own research rather than a passage already provided.
Pair the worksheet with an atlas, almanac, or reliable state website so students can locate current officeholders such as the governor and lieutenant governor.
Use the capital-attractions and five-cities prompts on page 2 as a jumping-off point for a short oral share-out once research is complete.
Skills covered
Independent research skills — students locate and record specific facts (capital, population, area, motto) about Mississippi using outside reference sources.
Geographic reasoning — students identify states bordering Mississippi and describe its territory and climate.
Civic knowledge — students research current state officeholders, the governor and lieutenant governor.
