50states.com is a very useful Social Studies website. Not only is the site accessible for students, but it provides a lot of information from which educators can create interactive and challenging lessons. The website is easy to navigate and provides comprehensive information about states. From fun facts to city guides, this website has it all! I would highly recommend it to any elementary, middle, or high school teacher. This website is not only useful to a teacher who is covering geography, this website can be used for anything. If an educator is looking for a way to give students additional enrichment about an area or region, they need only send them to this website.
A potential drawback to this website is it’s lack of video resources. It does not provide any kind of links to information videos like those found on the History channel’s website. Perhaps the web masters can team up with history.com to include pertinent clips from “How the States Got their Shapes”.
