Ebooks on EbscoHost -
As I thought about what to search, my eyes wandered to a family picture taken at Mount Rushmore. So, I figured "Why Not?" and searched for Mount Rushmore. There were four ebooks and the one that I chose what about Hiking in the Black Hills. It was easy to open and look at. It was a little older (1996 - I did say older, not ancient!), so the information could be slightly outdated. I did find some relatively newer books though when I searched a few other topics.
I had a hard time trying to find a book that would help students with Constitution Day. Since the holiday was made official in 2004, most of the books were copyrighted before that date. I found some books that would help with information on the Constitution and those books would only be helpful to older students.
I typed in Oklahoma in the advanced search. I came up with 82 books - the majority of them talking about Native Americans.
Overall - excited about this resource!
Good for you, Hamlin. I also like the Hiking in the Black Hills book, and hope to remember to use it the next time we go! You are correct that searching "constitution" will get you information for older students. Thanks for your comments!
