A note from one of our school’s librarians:
Here are some web sites for Social Studies teachers:
Center for History and New Media – http://chnm.gmu.edu
Cyberschoolbus: United Nations – http://www.cyberschoolbus.un.org – international issues and the United Nations
Digital History – http://www.digitalhistory.uh.edu – US History
Famous Trials – http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/ftrials.htm

Gee, didn’t I note most of those sites? If I did, it wasn’t recently enough. A good reminder (my AP government students used the UMKC site for their projects on the Scopes Trial last month). Check out each of those sites and let us know which ones you find particularly valuable.
Spread the word; friends don't allow friends to repeat history.
