I teach 2nd grade, and our social studies curriculum includes a unit on the Georgia Regions. I use this one website every year (http://library.thinkquest.org/CR0213900/) and do an entire lap book with the kids. The website is actually created by middle school students, so it is written in kid-friendly language, and should be easy to use to search for the answers to the questions.

I created the document in word, rather than google docs because the wordsearch itself failed to format correctly in that application.

I love this idea for my class. It would be a great center/ small group activity for the kids.
