While looking at A Great List of OER Resources, I found G4C. I thought I'd see if there were any online games students could play to add to the immigration unit. Not only did I find a great one on iCivics called Liberty Belle's Nation, it also linked me to lesson plans with learning objectives, readings, a variety of activities to access comprehension, Scholastic Teacher links to interactive tour guides of Ellis Island, virtual field trip links, graphs with data, and (Scholastic) lesson plans on this topic, leading from the past to present.

This site is amazing...so much potential in a social studies or science class. I've used it in the library, but just as means to show the site to students.
