U.S. Presidents’ Birthplaces: Match Them Up
Name __________________________________
Date______________________
Directions: Cut out each president’s face neatly. Use http://www.whitehouse.gov/about/presidents to find out where each president was born.
On the answer sheet, fill in the birth state and birth year for each president. The numbering on the answer sheet matches the numbering of
presidents’ faces. (Find online, print and cut out images of any presidents not listed on the answer sheet.) On the map, place each face on (or
near) that particular president’s state of birth.
Answer the following questions: 1. In which state were the most presidents born? 2. In which state were the fewest presidents born?
Bonus Activity #1: Create a color key in the bottom right corner of the map, where a specific color will show that a certain number of presidents
were born in a particular state. (Example: Blue = 0 - 2 presidents, Red = 3 - 4 presidents, and so on.) Color each state the appropriate color.
Bonus Activity #2: On a separate sheet of paper, make a bar graph showing the number of presidents born in each of the states. On the
vertical side of the graph, list numbers from zero (at the bottom) to as high as needed (at the top). On the horizontal side of the graph, list the
postal abbreviations of the states, beginning (on the left) with the state where the fewest presidents were born and ending (on the right) with the
state where the most presidents were born. Color in a bar for each state to represent the number of presidents born in that state.
