In Mississippi there are many states where the Mississippi River runs through. As you travel along and visit each city that it touches, write down the towns and cities that you visited.
Task
Students will create a small group and work together using the book All Around Mississippi. The students are also able to use the internet, maps, and other resources that come available to them. Students will then travel to the cites, write down the name of the city, the name of the county that the city is located, and write a fact about the city.
