Getting to Know Utah
In this Nearpod VR States lesson, students explore what makes Utah unique. They investigate Utah’s defining characteristics, including: its geography, history, landmarks, industry, and culture.

This is a great Nearpod on getting to know Utah. I used this in migrant summer school this year, I taught 6th grade and my students learned a great deal about the state they live in. They really found it to be useful and informative.
