New York

Worksheet Description

Buckle up, friends, as we travel to the state of New York! Now, you might be thinking of the big city with tall buildings, but New York has so much more to offer. Let’s dive in and explore!

New York is one of the 50 states in the United States. It’s located in the northeastern part of our country. The state has big cities, quiet countryside areas, tall mountains, and beautiful lakes.

When people hear “New York,” they often think of New York City, and for a good reason. New York City, often called “The Big Apple,” is the largest city in the U.S.! It has five sections called “boroughs.” You might have heard of some, like Manhattan, where you can find Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, and Times Square. Broadway shows are also a big deal here; it’s where stories come alive on stage!

But New York isn’t just about the city. Let’s talk about some other places. There’s Long Island, a big piece of land stretching out into the ocean, famous for its beaches. Upstate New York has beautiful places like the Adirondack Mountains, where people love to hike and camp. There’s also the Finger Lakes region, with lakes shaped like fingers, where families go for boat rides and picnics.
