Amanda Zieg on 29 Sep 11Even though this is not an American affiliated site, the British Library has excellent resources for educators. I enjoyed the variety of tools and resources it had to offer. One particular area that I enjoyed exploring was their "Timelines: Sources from History" that allows you to explore collection items from ancient civilizations to the present day. There was also this one section pertaining to a century of children's songs, rhymes and games, which presented children's culture in Britain over the years. I found this to be very intriguing because I did not expect to see a special area designated only for children's games of the past. In addition to explaining these games there were also curriculum links highlighting drama, history, art, citizenship, etc.
