About Colorado
Colorado is famous for the Rocky Mountains, which run through much of the state and give it an average elevation higher than any other state. Denver, the capital, is nicknamed "the Mile High City" because its elevation sits almost exactly one mile above sea level, and many kids there grow up skiing or hiking in the nearby mountains.

Using an "I Live in Denver" worksheet
