United States--North Carolina and North Dakota

We started back on our 50 states unit.  Last year I said that if I did one state a week I'd be finished in just over a year.  Well, it's taken me over a year.  One state a week stopped working for us.  We did one state a day for a few weeks, then moved to a different theme and now we are back to the 50 states. 

North Carolina is where the Wright Brothers made their first successful airplane flight.  We learned a little bit about Orville and Wilbur Wright and made paper airplanes then practiced flying them.  We also made cardboard airplanes. 

North Dakota grows more sunflowers than any other state.  We ate sunflower seeds and made sunflowers.
