    This is a great website to use while studying WWII and the holocaust. The website has many different activities for students and teachers.

    This really is a valuable site. I know that I'm planning on doing a mini-holocaust unit this year, and there are so many great resources here.

    The Wisconsin Veterans Museum has a travel trunk program where teachers can check out trunks. The trunks have artifacts, activities and resourses for the Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War.

    Looking for an alternative way to search for images? Tag Galaxy is a site where you can type in a subject, such as "The Revolutionary War", and you'll be directed to a selection of photographs about the Revolutionary war. These are photographs that people have tagged, and many of the photos come with descriptions. This is a great site for visual learning.

    I like the way the website uses planets to categorize the pictures. I typed in a few different entries my students have used to search for images, particularly "toads". I' not sure it is the most efficient way to search, but it was fun. Out of curiosity, I entered "union busting" and saw many familiar images from Wisconsin.

    This is truly a really cool website. My students would really like looking for pictures this way. I like how every picture has a description that goes with it. I typed in WWII because that is what we are studying now and there thousands of different pictures (including Lego soldiers :) ). My only concern is making sure that every picture is appropriate for the students.

    this is a very useful site to find images, is there a way for students to copy or use these photos?

    I was able to get back to the original Flickr page by clicking on the image (double click?). Once there, I found the ones I looked at to be "all rights reserved."
