I’m always finding cool things on the Interwebs for my students. I have a few favourites which I use again and again. You can find more in my “diigo links” on the right hand side bar.
New France – Virtual Museum , Defending Quebec (Parks Canada)
WW1 Games (BBC Schools Online)
Animated Map of WW1 (I love this one – I have students consider how often the Germans/Axis seem to be “winning.” Using only this map as a resource, can they determine what tactics caused the ebb and flow of the war?)
Montreal’s McCord Museum – great games and amazing political cartoons
Juno Beach and Storming Juno Website – Go Team Canada!
