Have You Seen These Websites?
• Arkive:
It contains information about endangered animals. These entries are wikis, but once they
have been vetted, their status will state this (so you can get into explaining authoritative
sources). The site is searchable by animal, age of students, eco region, endangered status,
etc. Photos and videos accompany most entries.
• Docsteach:
This site “brings history to life” by pairing primary source documents from the National
Archives with lesson plans. Teachers can create their own original activities or use
activities developed by others. Activities are browsable by historical era, historical thinking
skill or tool.
• Iwitness:
This video library, co-sponsored by the Shoah Foundation, contains more than 1,000 video
testimonies of survivors and other witnesses of the Holocaust. Videos are searchable by
subject area (such as Bystanders, Forced Labor, and Ghetto Life). Activities on the site
are searchable by subject area, standards addressed, and length of time needed to
complete activity.
