About this resource
Description
North Dakota sits on the northern Great Plains, right on the border with Canada, and it is full of fun facts for young learners. This North Dakota worksheet helps 3rd grade students read a short nonfiction passage about the state and answer questions using details from the text.
Students read about the states and country that border North Dakota, the year it joined the country, the Red River and the Missouri River, the striped rock hills of the Badlands, Theodore Roosevelt and his ranch, the peace garden near Canada, the capital city of Bismarck, and the wheat, sunflowers, and honey that come from its farms. Then they answer four multiple-choice questions, including one that asks what the word badlands means, and write a short response that explains why people call it the Peace Garden State. A bright picture of the Badlands sits above the passage.
What’s Included
- A nonfiction reading passage about North Dakota with a full-color picture
- A questions page with four multiple-choice questions and one short written response
- An answer key page with every answer and a model written response
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
- Reading facts about a real state builds geography knowledge and social studies vocabulary.
- Finding the meaning of a word from the passage practices an important reading skill.
- Using two details in a written answer teaches students to support their ideas with the text.
Teacher and Parent Ideas
Before reading, find North Dakota on a United States map and name the three states and the country around it. After the worksheet, have students trace the Red River and the Missouri River, or draw a picture of the Badlands with its colorful layers of rock. This 3rd grade states worksheet fits well in a states unit, a geography center, or as homework. Students can also compare the North Dakota worksheet facts with facts about their own state and share one thing that surprised them.
