United States Mint – The 50 State Quarters Program

My 5th grade students use this site every year when  we study U.S. geography in social studies class. Each student picks a state and then s/he researches the official quarter of that state. The entire class then learns something new about every state. One year we even raised money for our class trip by collecting state quarters. Students are able to view the reverse sides of each state quarter, learning about images that represent America, as well as the coin minting process. Later in the year, when we visit Historic Philadelphia, the students are able to visit the U.S. Mint headquarters.
