To learn US geography, I have some free US State 3-part flashcards. Also, look at my Hands-On Simple And Best Homeschool Geography Ideas & Tips.
Too, I have some other activities to share how to learn all 50 states.
And I will explain what is a 3-part flashcard. They are very flexible to help learners of different ages.
Besides, learning the states should be fun.
When your child knows where each state is, they can learn about its history and culture.
And when you combine hands-on activities like games, recipes and even music your child learns information in different ways.
This helps learning stick and doesn’t reduce learning to just memorization.

Also, look at these reasons to use flash cards.
HOW TO USE THE FLASH CARDS FOR LEARNING
First, flash cards make learning active.
Especially, if a child learns independently, self-pacing is a huge motivating factor.
For example, if you have a reader the name of the state can be paired with the state.
Use the set of flashcards with the state name on it to self-check the answers.
Too, when a child uses flash cards regularly they learn through memory.
When memory recall is accompanied by dynamic play you increase your child’s retention of the information.
Next, look at these ways to use the cards.
- Flash the cards with the state name and shape to introduce the state.
- Cut the two-part cards on the line to match the name and state.
- Also, non-readers can match states to state and learn the shape.
- Use the state cards with younger learners by placing native animals of the state on the state.
- Encourage your older children to memorize the state capitals.
- Too encourage your older learner to organize the states by region. For example, group the northeastern states together and the southern states.
- Also, have your child place the states on the floor and organize them into a “map”. This helps them to learn the geography of the state.
Next, add more activities to learn about the states.
