How to Teach Your Child to Remember the 50 United States
Why I Have This Stuck in My Head I Have No Idea
Although this may sound silly over the years it has served its purpose and I do remember singing it in my head in high school for a few tests. Great job Mrs. Davis! Maybe you'll get a hold of this article someday and know your teaching made a difference. Hopefully they still do it in the schools, but I know my son hasn't learned it there yet so I am trying to teach him now. Now its your turn to pass it on to someone else, I am simply going to write out each state in order and cut it off at each pause if that makes any sense. If not, too bad, I am basically doing this to get it out of my head anyways.
Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut.............
Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana.........
IoWAY, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan....
Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, NeBRASKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, NevAda.
New Hampshire

North Carolina

o-H-I-o
Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, TexAS,
Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, WyOOOOOOOOOOming.
I yi yi, what did I just do! Oh and if you were wondering why it was even stuck in my head in the first place I just saw the word Alaska and POOF! There it was. Okay, time to go write a real article.
