Welcome to Teachinghistory.org

It's Friday, and we'd like to share with you a free resource available to teachers in the US: Teachinghistory.org

Nearly half a million yearly visitors use this website to find valuable, free information. We invite our history teachers to do the same. We especially call your attention to these sections:

- Video Introduction to Historical Thinking.

- Spotlight on African American History Month.


- The February 2012 E-Newsletter.


- Free
Historical Thinking and Civil War posters.

The
Issues and Research section has an interactive database of state standards for each state and the District of Columbia, which complements its recently updated project, A Report on the State of History Education.

Teachinghistory.org is a project of the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media at George Mason University and is funded through the U.S. Department of Education’s Teaching American History (TAH) program. It is a leader in providing K-12 history teachers with free access to resources and materials to improve their lessons.
