Loads of Free History lessons and Resources

Free Activities and lesson plans abound at mrdonn dot org for Ancient, World and American histories. The worldview is secular evolutionary.There are presentations in power point format that are full of graphics, pictures, maps and even a little humor (for example, at the end of a Viking PP, there is a modern day photo of the football team). Here is an example of a map from that same PP.

There are many links to other resources. From the Vikings page, I was directed to the BBC page for Vikings which is also loaded with information. In addition, mrdonn pointed me to the Viking Quest game also on the BBC which was fantastic! Can't wait to show it to my young right brainer. I started playing and couldn't stop until I completed a game - interactive, informative and fun. Further down on the Viking page, I found a link that sent me back to BBC, this time to their Primary History and found another game more geared to the younger set - Thorkel and the Trading Voyage.

You really have to explore this website! I found so much on just a cursory trip around one page.
