About this resource

This quiz focuses on United States geography, specifically testing students' knowledge of Northeast states and their capital cities. Designed for 4th grade students, the assessment evaluates fundamental geographic literacy through direct recall of state-capital relationships across the northeastern region of the United States. Students need to demonstrate memorization of eleven state capitals including Albany, Augusta, Harrisburg, Hartford, Boston, Montpelier, Annapolis, Dover, Trenton, Providence, and Concord, while also being able to match capitals to their corresponding states when given the reverse format. The questions require students to distinguish between major cities and actual capital cities, as evidenced by including New York City as a distractor for New York's capital. This type of geographic knowledge forms the foundation for more advanced studies in regional geography, civics, and social studies concepts that build throughout elementary education. Created by Sarah Margaret Rosling, a Social Studies teacher in the US who teaches grade 4. This quiz serves as an excellent tool for building essential geographic knowledge that students will use throughout their academic careers. Teachers can effectively implement this assessment as a quick warmup activity to activate prior knowledge, as guided practice during geography units, or as homework to reinforce classroom learning about the Northeast region. The quiz works particularly well for formative assessment, allowing educators to identify which state-capital pairs students have mastered and which require additional review before summative testing. The content directly supports NCSS.D2.Geo.2.3-5 standards, which expect students to use maps, satellite images, photographs, and other representations to explain relationships between locations of places and regions, as well as common core literacy standards that emphasize students' ability to recall information from experiences or gather information from provided sources.
