About this resource

Description

Learning a state means more than memorizing a bird and a flower — it means reading about the place and being able to say what you found. This michigan worksheet gives third graders an original non-fiction text about Michigan and then asks four multiple-choice questions and one written response, every one of them answerable from the passage itself. Students practice the habit a social studies reader needs most: going back to the text for the evidence instead of guessing.

This 3rd grade states worksheet is three pages. Page one carries a full-color illustrated Great Lakes shoreline and a 241-word text about Michigan — the two peninsulas and the long bridge between them, the four Great Lakes on its shores, statehood in 1837 as the twenty-sixth state, Lansing and Detroit, the three states that touch it by land, the Great Lakes State nickname, the northern woods, the cherry farms, and the car plants in the south. Page two holds the questions and page three the complete answer key.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • An original 241-word non-fiction text about Michigan, written on the third grade level
  • A full-color illustrated scene of a Great Lakes dune and shoreline
  • 4 fill-in-the-bubble questions and 1 written response with text evidence
  • A complete answer key

Three reasons this resource helps children learn about the states. First, every answer lives in the passage, so a student who is unsure has somewhere to go rather than a fact to look up at home. Second, the text carries the same facts the old research prompts asked for — nickname, statehood, bordering states — which means the sheet teaches them instead of assuming them. Third, the written response asks for two details, so students practice supporting an answer the way state reading and social studies assessments expect.

Teachers and parents can build on this michigan worksheet in a few easy ways. Find Michigan on a map and trace the shoreline of all four Great Lakes that touch it. Ask students to name the three states that border it and find those on the map too. Have them compare this state to their own: which is bigger, which is farther north, which has more water. Look up one more fact about Michigan and write a sixth question for a partner to answer.
