Re: Can you name the 50 states?
Off the top oh my head I was able to write down 45 out of 50. Now, I have to look up the states I missed.

Yup - and I don't know a song LOL.
I know the part from about a minute on.
Fifty Nifty United States
My friend in 4th grade taught me!
Yes!
Fifty nifty United States from 13 original colonies, shout 'em, count 'em tell all about 'em!
We learned the song in elementary school! They are in alphabetical order and I remember yelling NEW YORK!

Re: Can you name the 50 states?
I also had to know the 50 states AND their capitals for the 5th grade! I can name the 50 states if I wrote them down, and unfortunately the capitals I didnt retain all of them...but I probably do 30-50% of them!
Thank you Ms. Johnson back in the 1980s

Re: Can you name the 50 states?
Yes
if I write them down I can see what i've forgotten. I don't think i could just say them out loud. Pressure!!!
But I start where I've lived, states I've visited, states I've driven through, then any neighbor to that state. Then places of interest (like my sister dating a guy in Kentucky - I'm always forgetting that state), then places I'll probably never visit from lack of interest or availablity (idaho, alaska, wyoming), places I want to go (washington, oregon, ohio, mackinac, mi)
That does it 
Thanks for the excerise.
I have now figured out that i've lived in, driven through, or visited 40 of our 50 states. Need to get on those last 10!!!
What were your missing three??

Haha I actually start with New England, then go alphabetically from there. I'm not well-traveled enough to just do the states I've been to! lol!
I actually got New Mexico before giving up and cheating, but we left out Montana and Oregon!

Re: Can you name the 50 states?
Yes I just tried it.... I got 48 right away but had to think about it a lot to get the last 2. What helps me is picturing the map of the US.

Re: Can you name the 50 states?
I definitely can. Someone challenged me, at a bar no less, to do it.
If you know where each state is geographically, it's easy to do it that way.

Re: Can you name the 50 states?
No
I was either not taught it or somehow blocked it out of my mind b/c I hated geography in grade school. Still not interested in it, as ignorant as that sounds.
