Great website for Civil War Units. There are maps, battle statistics, weapons, people, and slavery. Easy for students to use. Well-maintained and accurate.
Great resource for students and teachers who are researching the Civil War. Information on battles, slavery, and soldiers. There are also links to official records which are interesting for the students to see.
This year, Microsoft has made Office available for the iPad, iPhone, a preview available for Android, and even dropped the price to free. Meanwhile, the incumbent, Google Drive and its associated apps, have been building out features. Today, we compare the two on mobile.
This interactive site walks kids through the history of the some of the world's most famous conflicts. Role play, higher-order thinking skills, and problem solving engages students. One feature I like is the ability of students to blog a journal of their battle plans/results throughout the activity.
