Social Studies Links

Here are some great links stolen from Free Technology for Teachers.


Scholastic has created an interactive Underground Railroad. It follows a slave from Virginia all the way to freedom in Ohio. It is a great resource and it provides a teachers guide that goes with each stop along the way. Definitely worth checking out!


This site is also created by Scholastic. Students will be able to be President for the day. They will create a budget for the country. Once they have finished creating their budget, they then will defend what they created.


Listen and Read is also through Scholastic. There are 54 non-fiction books that can be read with your students. These stories can be used by the students independently or they can be projected on your Smart Board! The stories I clicked on look to be geared towards lower elementary (K-2).
