Minnesota
Hi! I'm Amanda. I chose to do my report on Minnesota because that's where I'm from. In fact, my whole family is from Minneapolis. I thought it would be interesting to know more about where I came from. So sit back, relax, and enjoy my report on Minnesota. Like all other states, Minnesota has many special qualities of its own. The Norway pine is the state tree. The loon is the state bird. The pink and white lady slipper is the lovely state flower. "Star of the North" is the state motto. Last but not least, the gopher is the state animal. They are all very interesting and unique to Minnesota. Minnesota is a weird name as many might think. That is because Indians made it up. In their language, minne means "water", and sotah means "sky-tinted". In that case, the nickname is "Land of Sky Blue Waters". There are over 4,757,757 people living in Minnesota. The four biggest cities are Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth, and Bloomi
There are also many lakes, forests, state parks, and sporting events. With all the big cities, I never knew there was so much farming in Minnesota. Some of the most popular are the Boundary Waters Canoe Area, the Mayo Clinic, Fort Snelling, the Glensheen Mansion, Ironworld USA, the Minnesota Zoo, Murphy's Landing, the Science Museum of Minnesota, Paul Bunyan Land, The Guthrie Theater, and one of the most popular of them all (especially me), the Mall of America. Minnesota is surrounded by the states of Wisconsin, Iowa, South Dakota, and North Dakota and Canada. I never knew there could be so many places to go in one state. Long ago glaciers covered most of the land that we now call Minnesota. Now that I picked it, I feel I made a good choice. Like many other states, Minnesota has its own ways of doing things. Also, throughout the year, they get about 19 inches of rain and snow. Until I did this report, I never knew how interesting one state could be. There are many historical facts about Minnesota. Temperatures average around 68 degrees F in July and 2 degrees F in January. When I chose to write about Minnesota, I just did it because that's where I was born. With natural resources of fertile soil, important minerals, and thick evergreen forests, the major industries are farming, mining, and the building of roads, office buildings and hotels.
