State Plate match up with Classical Conversations

Classical Conversations friends – the series State Plate on Amazon is a perfect complement to Cycle 3! State Plate has an episode for each state where they highlight some of the iconic dishes from that state. Everyone in my family loves watching it – it’s so fascinating to learn the history behind each dish, what makes it unique to that state, and see how it’s made.

My family is using Notgrass’ Our 50 States curriculum this year alongside CC. After we read the chapters about a state in Our 50 States we watch the corresponding State Plate episode. There are three seasons and I was getting tired of having to scroll through each season to find the state we were ready to watch so I made a match up to make life easier for me this year – you can see that here.

Our 50 States doesn’t follow exactly the same order as CC so I’ve also made a separate match up that matches State Plate with CC’s geography.

Tip: We also have been enjoying the Homeschool Pop videos on YouTube about each state. They’re 5-7 minutes long and give some facts about the state – state bird, state nicknames, state flag, major cities, etc. We usually watch the Homeschool Pop video followed by the State Plate for that state.

I hope you enjoy State Plate as much as we do!
