Library of Congress

The Library of Congress has developed a page with teacher-created, classroom-tested lessons plans using primary sources from the Library of Congress. Some of the topics include, American history, African American history, World War I and II, Civil War, government and law, immigration, science, sports, women's history, and photography. Many of the lessons include hyperlinks to material from the Library of Congress, as well as any worksheets or documents required. Make sure to check this out if you're looking for an engaging lesson to share with your students!
