[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The song is Fifty Nifty United States, and I still can sing very word almost 40 years after learning it. Does not teach the capitals though.[/quote] [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhDrGnjacvA[/url] [/quote] I learned Fifty Nifty United States in 2nd grade, 43 years ago and can still sing it now. In fact, this is how I still remind myself of all 50 states and can state them in alphabetical order. And after I learned the song, I found it easier to learn the state capitals. Several months ago, I joined some friends for trivia night and was able to answer the capital of South Dakota quickly earning "my" team 10 points. Probably the first time in 43 years that I actually had a practical reason for knowing the capital of South Dakota! :-)[/quote]
