    A PBS video about what happened to the founding fathers who signed the Declaration of Independence.  I think students would find this interesting so they can see how signing this document really did impact the lives of these men.  Would be a nice conclusion to teaching it as it is only 8:00 minutes long.

    "This relic from ancient Persia had a profound influence on the Founding Fathers" <br /> This might be a good short video to show middle school students when we try to connect US history to ancient history.... Thomas Jefferson apparently studied ancient Persia as a model for governing people with different religious practices.

    Thank you so much. I am definitely going to check this out! We are always looking for ways to connect the ancient world to the modern one.
