    For students studying the Civil War, this is a great resource that details two communities, one in the North and one in the South. Through newspapers, letters, diaries, maps, and census and tax records, students can examine what life was like in this community and how war affected both sides, sometimes in unforeseen ways. This website would probably work better for high school students, but the information can be used for grades 7th and 8th also.
