158: Online Primary History Sources

In this episode, you can learn why you would want to use online primary history sources as well as where you can find them. One use would be if your child is competing in National History Day which I talk about in episode 5.

The 4 sources I mention are:

eyewitnesstohistory.com – firsthand accounts of events
Library of Congress digital collection – The Polish birthday “card” can be found here
Chronicling America – digitized newspapers from 1777-1963
Smithsonian history explorer: Th ledgeer I talk about can be found here

The FundaFunda Academy history classes and unit studies I mention are:

Who’s Who in World War 2 for 5th – 8th grade
World War 2 Year by Year – for 4th to 8th grade
US History (Hons) for 9th – 12th grade
