I wanted to release the first set before explaining how these will be different from our normal badge program releases. This will allow you to compare the posts.
A normal badge program post has the infographic with the basic information in addition to the supplements that go with it. Each post has an equivalent full badge program on larajlaenrich.com.
Each state will have three badge programs released on Tuesdays, starting with the one released two days ago. These include Explorer, Basics, and Printables.
These badges all share the same supplement files for that specific state. Releasing each badge in the trio with the same links seemed like a lot of wasted time and space. Instead, I dropped off the infographics. Only the links to the supplements are on the post. At the bottom, you’ll see the links to the badge programs so that information is still available individually.
I will attempt to remove the links a month after the set is released, so be sure to download the supplements if you want them before they’re gone.
It’s just a bit different.
I will release additional badges since fifty straight weeks of state-based badges needs to be broken up. This will happen on select Thursdays throughout 2024.
The state badge sets can be used to learn about the states, as a basis for a variation on your World Thinking Day event (states instead of countries), and more.
NOTE: It may seem like there are a lot of supplements. The time I scheduled to work on the supplements was taken by illness, so I have a lot more that are started but not completed. They will not go out with the initial badge releases as that would mean putting off the releases even longer. They will be added to later updates.
