US State Symbols: Book 2: Mo-W Elizabeth King

US State Symbol book 2 - MO-W this unit study is the rest of the alphabet starting with states that begin with MO and through W. This book is setup just like book 1, however at the end of this book there are extra game and activities and there is a lap book kit for all 50 states.

Each state covers the year the state was admitted, and the number of state they are, the capital city and a list of almost all of their state symbols.

In Nebraska, they have a state beverage, bird, fish, flower, fossil, insect, mammal, poet laureate, river, soft drink and tree.

Bet you can't guess which state has the most symbols, with over 50 state symbols. If you know the saying 'everything is bigger in Texas', then you guessed Texas and you would be right. Some of the Texas state symbols include state 10k, bread, cobbler, cooking element, dish, dog breed, epic poem, footwear, hashtags, hat, health nut, large mammal, mammal, ship, shrub, vehicle and more! Texas list takes up two pages, and we didn't even list all of the symbols.
