This website is great for both teachers and students. It has millions of primary sources from U.S. history. It works for research or even simply as a lesson starter with an interesting photograph.

Although this page requires payment to a subscription for FULL access it still allows students to browse great stories from around the globe. The best part is it is all written by students as well.

This simulation has 3 chapters to it. It allows students to make decisions as if they were a person during that event. It has revolutionary war, civil war, and settling the west as missions. Students learn a great deal about the event while interacting with the characters and the primary sources. There is also a game functionality with it as well.

This wiki contains lots of information about what genius hour is, how to implement it in your class, and examples of how it has gone for others.
