LEARN HISTORY ONLINE


BBC Schools- Primary History is an excellent site for younger students to learn more about the way of life during important historical eras. The bar that you will see as soon as you visit the page displays the six groups of people information is provided about: 1) the Ancient Greeks, 2) the Romans, 3) the Anglo-Saxons, 4) the Vikings, 5) the Children of Victorian Britain and 6) the Children of World War 2. Every section includes timelines, accessible texts, photos, fun facts, quizzes, relevant activities, further links and even teachers' resources.

Older students can read about and watch photographs of the most characteristic events of the 20th century in this slideshow: www.slideshare.net/goga2101/the-20th-centuryin-photos. Those interested can easily read the texts on the slides by clicking on the 'full screen' button in the bottom right-hand corner of the slideshow box.
