State the Facts is a state history guide that leads your student through writing over 30 mini research projects. These are actually fun! One day your student might write a letter to his state senator. The next day he’ll draw his state flag, research the state bird, or visit a famous attraction. By the time he is through, he will have compiled an impressive notebook on every aspect of his state. My son’s notebook was over 30 pages in length! Written at a 4-6th grade level, my son was a senior when he did it. After all, the research ideas are pertinent regardless of your age! The only thing I didn’t like was that the author assumes most of your research will be done at the library, with many references to “ask the librarian...” We adjusted, and did our research on the computer. All in all, this is an excellent book! We are not allowed to discount this book.
