    This site teaches far more than history to our students. The photos, documents, and first-hand accounts of the Holocaust and World War II are presented in a way that encourages students to see others as people; not by color, nationality, ability, etc. This is an ideal way to give students primary material to improve their social/cultural literacy as well as emotional literacy. It is powerful and poignant, a site that could benefit any student, intermediate age and higher.

Our Documents - 10 Milestone Documents - 3 views

  •  
    One hundred documents which reflect important events in American history. This site reflects the diversity and unity within our culture and its focus is highlighting, celebrating, and creating discussion that diversity and unity. It is not simply an archive of a broad collection of documents, but rather an archive which represents a vast range of American experiences.

    This site features 100 documents from American history from 1776 to 1965. The list includes public laws, Supreme Court decisions, inaugural speeches, treaties, constitutional amendments, and others. They were chosen because of their role in shaping our country. I would use this site with 5th graders learning American history, but it could also be useful for middle or high schoolers. I like that they have narrowed down the documents to only those that were most influential.

    Our documents includes 100 Milestone American historical documents compiled to span United States historical events from 1776-1965. Documents can be accessed by listing/year or visual/digital scroll bar. This resource would be valuable for intermediate elementary students through high school students as well as educators. Primary sources would be beneficial in U.S./American history and government education.

    This website has many primary and government documents relating to the history of the United States.  One area that I really enjoyed exploring was the tools for educators.  Under that section, they had many tips for librarians such as creating book displays, bulletin board ideas, and a link to a poster so staff and students can vote on the most important American history documents.

    This primary source describes the importance of the buffalo and hide painting for the Plains Indians. It is geared toward intermediate elementary students. You will find teacher information, art work and information for students to read.This would also be a good website for the Art teacher in you.

NPAHE - Nebraska Partnership for American History Education - 1 views

  •  
    The Nebraska Partnership for American History Education provides a variety of primary source resources by theme, time period, photos (1850-1938), and bibliographic collections. This site is useful for Nebraska history, United States history, women's history, Native & African American histories. It would definitely be appropriate for intermediate elementary students through high school students and all educators (lesson plans can be found here).
