Great Resources for History on the Internet

The digital world keeps expanding and there is so much in cyperspace it is hard to keep up with it all. Kids who like history might explore the Virignia Center for Digital History. The site contains lots of information on Jamestown and several other excellent databases, such as The Geography of Slavery and Encountering the West: The Changing Visions of Lewis, Clark,and Jefferson. http://www.vcdh.virginia.edu/

Kids also should check out Colonial Williamsburg for podcasts and information on all kinds of things relating to eighteenth-century America: www.history.org
