Learning the states

We are studying US History and will also being learning to locate the states. I printed off a blank map from Donna Young Printables and Resources and had the boys complete it before we started memorizing any of the states. I will keep this map to chart their progress over the next couple of months. I also found several sites with US map puzzles for them to practice locating the states. They will do a different one each day for 4 days and then we will test again to see how many they have learned so far. I think this will be an easier way for them to memorize them as opposed to just staring at a map. Below I have listed the puzzles sites if you want to check them out:
