Volume 5 - Montana through Hawaii
States 41-50: Montana, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska, Hawaii

The final volume of America Well-Stated travels from the wide-open spaces of Montana to the islands of Hawaii - and saves some of the most surprising stories in the entire series for last.

Students learn about the Japanese balloon bombs that fell on Montana during World War II, then head to Washington State for the conflict that nearly started a war over a pig. Idaho introduces the Nez Percé people's role in preserving the Appaloosa horse breed. Wyoming holds a remarkable record of firsts for women in American history. Utah is home to the world's most massive single living organism. Oklahoma explores the state's unusual panhandle and the surprising story of a landlocked seaport. New Mexico honors the Navajo Code Talkers and their essential contribution to World War II. Arizona takes students into the Petrified Forest and up to one of the most remote communities in the country. Alaska traces the journey from Russian territory to U.S. state and tells the story of the Japanese Zero plane brought down in the Aleutian Islands. Hawaii closes the series with the story of its only queen - and the end of a monarchy.

Each state chapter includes multi-skill activities: secret codes, crossword grids, word searches, Sudoku variations, math equations, grammar practice, rhyming poems, and more.

Designed for homeschool families and classroom teachers in grades 5-8. No prep required. Answers are included at the back of this volume.

Part of a five-volume series covering all 50 states plus Washington DC.
