[quote=Anonymous]Google around and find a youtube of the state song - I don't know it but I know there are singing versions of listing all the states and I also think capitals. Sometimes it's easier to learn things by singing. The puzzle is also a great idea. I'm more distressed by your so sick of this at the end of the school year. I was thinking about school year burnout - I have a K and a 3rd grader. And there's this perception in DCPS that it used to be nothing was learned after spring break. I think burnout is adults - parents and teachers - who pass that attitude to kids. My 3rd grader and K student go to school every day ready to learn. Yes, I'm sick of school and homework too, but I want my kids learning every single day, including that last day of school. Ok, maybe last day is unrealistic, but kids like learning and can learn stuff in the last few weeks. [/quote]
