CIVIL WAR 
http://www.historyplace.com/civilwar/

http://www.geocities.com/EnchantedForest/Tower/1217/civwar.html
 

• This is a resource site made specifically for 4th and 5th graders to help them understand the civil war.

http://www.historyplace.com/lincoln/index.html
 

• A timeline about the life and civil-war actions of Lincoln – could be used for reports by students.

http://cybersleuth-kids.com/sleuth/History/US_History/Civil_War/

http://scriptorium.lib.duke.edu/collections/civil-war-women.html

• This is a collection of diaries and other original documents about or by women in the civil war era.  This would be a great website for kids to read about the role of women in the civil war – a subject ignored much of the time.

http://www.madison.k12.wi.us/tnl/detectives/kids/KIDS-990216.html

• This from a weekly newsletter for and by kids grades K-12, where student’s research is published in order to help other K-12 students.  Accounts of the civil war from children’s points of view are always easier for other students to understand.

http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~haas/learningcenter/civilwarslang.html

• This is a glossary of sorts of slang used by people during the civil war.  The terms are informative as well as entertaining, and students would most likely enjoy reading them.

http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Shores/2312/colorpages/colorstart.html
