America's Story - 1 views

    This site includes material about famous Americans. This site would work for any reports about presidents, about authors, or about musicians. It would also be helpful when researching the various states. As an American Literature teacher I would use the site to have students research Langston Hughes, for instance. That would also be a great source for Black History Month.

    This site is developed for kids by the Library of Congress. There is animation, games and videos that bring an appeal to this site. Research and learn about Amazing Americans, sports, past events, explore the states and various forms of media and music. Fourth graders in Lincoln research a state and biographies. Have them visit this fun site for some great facts.

    This site offers newspaper pages from 1860 to 1992 from various states, including Nebraska. Seeing the front page headlines from a newspaper printed at the time of a historical event could give students a better understanding of how people living at that time viewed the event.
