Today, I’m sharing parenting advice on Alabama educational activities. I’ve created Alabama educational activities to help teach children about the state of Alabama. The activities pack is perfect for a homeschool unit or extra geography homework. The unit includes a word search puzzle, fact sheet, tracing sheet, and a blank US map of the country, a map with the counties in Alabama to help children learn the location of Alabama and surrounding states.
Alabama Educational Activities:
First, I created a word search puzzle. You can also find the information listed in the word search in the Alabama Fact Sheet. The word search includes famous people from Alabama, the state bird and flower and other historical facts.
Incorporate additional facts into the lesson plan. For example, Who Is Rosa Parks? What is Mardi Gras? What does the Monarch Butterfly look like? In addition to the word search and history sheet, we included coloring pages and a map of the counties in Alabama.
Have fun coloring this fun picture of Alabama’s state bird the Yellowhammer. So, the Yellowhammer became Alabama’s official state bird in 1927. Soldiers from Alabama were nicknamed “yellowhammers” in the civil war. Their uniforms were grey-and-yellow uniforms, which matched the colors of the Yellowhammer.
Next, Alabama’s state flower is the Camellia. The Camellia is also know as the rose of winter and is native of China, Korea, Taiwan, and Japan. I The flower is a The Goldenrod was Alabama’s state flower until 1959.
Last, Alabama’s official insect is the Monarch Butterfly. Furthermore, seven states have adopted the monarch butterfly as an official symbol as well.
So, be sure to incorporate these Alabama educational activities into your homeschool history lesson plan or extra homeschool activities. You can download the activity pack here. Alabama’s Famous People Activities will be posted soon. Be sure to check back.
