The Living Schoolbook Local History site
provides an interesting database teaching resource
designed to provide practitioners with a venue for
collecting and sharing local history documents and related
questions for student investigations. The link
provided will enable you to access some DBQ with
documents. This first group of materials seems very
appropriate for Elementary level students but might be
tailored for multiple grade use. I have linked to the old
site because I find the design more immediately user
friendly.
