Child Labor 1908-1912 - 0 views

  •  
    This site has original photos and captions done by Lewis W. Hines. Hines took up photography as a mines of expressing his social concerns. This site could be used for Am. History, or in some photography classes to study Hines. The photos are very thought provoking and of great quality.

Holocaust - 1 views

  •  
    This site has photographs of very thought provoking images of the concentration camps. They are graphic in nature and may be upsetting to some. They would be a wonderful supplement to any study of WWII. It gives a small glimpse of how horrific the conditions were for the Jewish prisoners.

Civil War Letters - 0 views

  •  
    This site caught my attention because the letters are from an Iowa soldier. He was actually from my grandmother's home town. The site shows pictures of the soldier and the women he was sending them to. It has the original letters along with lesson plan ideas for teachers how to use them with a class.

Dr. Seuss Went to War - 0 views

  •  
    Wow, who knew. Dr. Seuss was the chief editorial cartoonist for the New York paper for two years. This is an archive of the political cartoons he drew. This would be a really good site for middle school and high school students. It would put a different twist on Dr. Seuss Week for them.

    This site has five links to different legislation in regards to segregation. It also has lots of teacher sources; literacy strategies, images of documents, vocabulary lists, and rubrics. This site would be perfect for intermediate elementary students and their teachers.

National Archives - 0 views

  •  
    This site has information for teachers and students how to best use the national archives. It has a link to the archived documents. I liked how it had a map of the United States and you could just click on Nebraska and it pulls up all the primary documents it has about it.

100 Milestone Documents - 0 views

  •  
    I really like how user friendly this website is. It has a link to the 100 source documents, but they are also scrolling at the top of the page. I find that really fun and different. I think it would get the kids attention, and let them preview quickly. This site also has a download source book with key ideas for how to use the 100 milestone documents in the classroom.
