Presentation: States in the USA

Now you'll have the chance to learn a lot more about some of the different states in the USA.
During the following weeks we will be working with this project and during that time you are going to find facts about your states and make an oral presentation about those. You can for example make a PowerPoint, a poster or why not a travel journal. Which cities, rivers, attractions can be found in your state? What important history has happened here? Nature and animals? Are there any animals in the US that we don't have here in Sweden? Are there any famous Americans from your state?
