Elaine, Thank you for sharing. I am always interested in what OYATE has to say about books.
ReplyDeleteJone,
ReplyDeleteIt's good to have so many educational resources available now at the click of a mouse.
Elaine, one of these years I am going to make a trip to Plimoth Plantation around this time. It would be so interesting. Thank you for all these resources.
ReplyDeleteSusan,
ReplyDeleteI used to take my students there in the fall for a field trip. The plantation helps make history come alive for young children.
