    This site has different links for all age groups including safety tips, a day in the life of an agent and FBI history. This site could be used in conjunction with literature where students could compare the day in the life of a real FBI agent compared to a fictional agent in a novel. It could also be used with the study of government.

    A primary source site concerning the Nazi's murder of the mentally ill during World War II. I would use these primary documents during the study of WWII so students become more aware of Hitler's view of those who are disabled.

    This site includes digital photographs, sheet music and background information on artifacts. Researchers can locate primary sources by topic, such as African American, Asian Americans, Civil War, Native Americans, just to name a few. Photos can be enlarged and pdf sheet music can be printed.
