The school year is gearing up. For students in my class, it will be the beginning of our Iditarod adventure together. I’m going to start with the attached lesson plan comparing State Symbols of Wisconsin and Alaska. Being that it is the beginning of the year, I plan to ask one question each day starting with the Wisconsin symbols. Students will be encouraged to find pictures of each symbol from books, magazines, or the internet.
Try this lesson as a quick, easy way to introduce Alaska and make some comparisons. Have fun and good luck!
