World Almanac---(50 States at bottom of page)

You may use my Illinois example. It will help you figure out what size font to use to fit on your poster. You will need to insert pictures, clip art, or print out pictures to glue neatly onto your state's poster, too.

POSTER IS DUE TUESDAY, May 13th!

1. Save it on a computer. (If you don't get the typing done at school, you can save and type the rest of the information on your computer at home.)

2. Type your state's information in place of Illinois' information. You may need to change the font size to fit your poster.

3. When you're done, print out the documents and make sure you lay them out on your poster before gluing them down. Arrange and glue neatly!
