    Students can use this site to find data and statistics on almost any subject. For example, a student could enter "Wisconsin" in the search bar and find out anything from population to the lowest point in the state. I even typed in my name, and found that there are just over 888,000 Sarahs expected to be alive today. This site is informative as well as interesting!

    That sounds like a fun website. Possibly a great website for those students who may need to be challenged more than the others. I bet some kids would really get into this site! Thanks for sharing, Sarah!

    Part of the Newseum website, this link will give you access to the front pages of more than 800 different newspapers from around the world. You can search by name or region. You will even find several newspapers from Wisconsin! Copyright laws still apply.

    Very cool. This gives me a great idea about how to show students that are major issues are not always viewed in the same way in different parts of the country. You have just helped me create a much stronger persuasive essay unit. Thanks,Greg.

    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."
