Have you guys done this when you're really bored? Well I guess the Americans here have to learn it for school, and I also have to learn it next year but sometimes I just do it for fun lol.
I usually get up to 48 cause I forget a couple of the many 'M' states or less well known states. One time I forgot New York. That was pretty stupid.

I had to learn all the states and their capitols in 3rd grade, but I never learned a song for them. Just some more random facts for me to know, I guess.

kinda. it's a patriotic program our 1st and 2nd graders do. i don't remember it all, but the second graders dressed up like different symbols of America (statue of liberty, bald eagle, uncle sam, DoI, etc) and said something about it (i had the stupid eagle  ). we sang a bunch or songs and the 1st graders did some stupid little dances. really all i remember is the states song (and wearing the stupid eagles outfit *gags*).

I can just imagine you guys all singing your songs lol. Those are really funny actually.
A patriotic program? Wow we don't have anything like that here. We're tested on the provinces and capitals obviously but we don't have songs. We only have 13 provinces and territories though  So it's really easy.
