This resource will give the students the opportunity to learn about different aspects of U.S. elections (whether local or national) and at the same time give them choices as to what they want (or need) to focus on. It will also give them the opportunity to choose how they want to work (alone or in a group) and how they present their findings (notebooking or lapbooking).

Turn your geography lessons into a creative travel adventure! As your students explore the historic and diverse Northeast region, these scrapbooking pages offer a dynamic way for them to document their “journey.” Instead of just memorizing facts, students become curators of their own learning, capturing the essence of the states from Maine down to Pennsylvania.
This 5-page set is designed to be the perfect companion to your regional studies, allowing students to blend artistic expression with factual writing.
🧠 The “How” and “Why” (Educational Benefits)
Why swap traditional worksheets for scrapbooking? It’s all about active synthesis:
- Multisensory Engagement: By drawing or pasting pictures and writing short descriptions, students engage multiple areas of the brain, leading to significantly higher information retention. 🎨
- Critical Thinking & Opinion: The “Personal Opinion” section moves beyond rote memorization, asking students to evaluate information and decide what interests them most—a key skill in developing independent learners. 💭
- Comprehensive Coverage: These pages guide students through the “Big Six” of geography: Climate, Landforms, Water, Natural Resources, Landmarks, and Culture. 🏔️🌊
- Ownership of Learning: Creating a scrapbook gives students a sense of pride and ownership. It’s no longer just a school assignment; it’s an artifact of their hard work. 📖
🛠️ Creative Ways to Use These Pages
- The “Travel Journal” Project: Have students “visit” the Northeast virtually. Use these pages as their daily log to record what they “saw” each day. ✈️
- State Fair Displays: If students are doing a deep dive into specific states, use these pages as the centerpiece for a poster board or display table.
- Geography Portfolios: Add these pages to a year-long geography binder. By the end of the year, students will have a complete “Travel Guide to the USA.” 📁
- Collaborative Posters: Print the pages at a larger scale and have small groups (or family) work together to illustrate and describe a specific aspect of the Northeast (like “Culture and Food”). 🍕
📝 What’s Included:
- 5 Detailed Scrapbooking Pages: Focused on the Northeast states.
- Guided Categories: Sections for Climate, Landforms, Water, Natural Resources, Landmarks, and Culture.
- Map Skills: Locating the states within the region.
- Personal Reflection: Space for students to share where they would most like to visit.
Pro Tip: This set is designed to pair perfectly with My Teaching Library’s Regions of the U.S. – Northeast Region | Informational Text and Worksheets for a complete, no-prep curriculum solution!

Whether it is an election year or not, if you are studying the U.S. Electoral College, this is a great resource for your classroom.
Suggestions for Use:
* If it is an election year, you can assign it for students to complete on election night.
* Not an election year? You can still use it! Simply assign students to complete the assignment for a specific presidential election.
* Study a variety of past presidential elections in U.S. History and how the electoral college voted! This would be a wonderful cooperative groups activity where each group completed (and reported their findings) on a different election.
