You can download the answer key from www.education.com if you are short on time.
This activity is best for grades three and up,. For younger children, you might want to have them identify the state they live in and those next to it by looking at a map.
PROCEDURE: Remind your student to begin with letter A. The first answer, Alabama is filled in. Search for other states with the letter A. Go on to the second letter. Alaska also begins with Al. The third letter is also A. Alaska comes next in alphabetical order. Continue with A. Two states begin with Ar. I comes before K so Arizona is next, followed by Arkansas. No more states with A. None begin with B. Move on with C and continue down the alphabet.

For special needs students or reluctant learners, break up the activity into several sessions. When finished label the states and color the map.
Keep the map in a notebook as a reference for state names and geography lesson.
