Educator's Reference Desk

This is a site that gives advice on how to incorporate different activities and/or lesson plans into the classroom. There are many different activities to choose from, just select a sub-category like history. From there, different lesson plans are listed and corresponding grades are given along the right side of the lesson. An example would be "Studying History Through Journal Keeping - Grade: 8-12" or "Costume - Grade: 2-4".

The lesson plans are written very well with detailed information on who submitted it, what school they are from, who endorses it, overview, purpose, objective(s), activities and procedures, recourses/materials. It really is a great place to get ideas on how to involve students in history outside of reading a textbook.  On top of that, it's a free source!
