regarding primary sources available for use through the Library of Congress
for Veterans Day.  I thought some of you might be looking for ideas.  Enjoy!

Prepare for Veterans Day with Two New Primary Source Sets

Two new primary source sets from the Library of Congress can bring your
students face to face with American war veterans. Veterans' Stories: The
Veterans History Project and Veterans' Stories: Struggles for
Participation let veterans tell their stories firsthand through
interviews, diaries, photographs, and drawings. All these items were
collected by the Veterans History Project, and they're accompanied by
teacher guides and analysis tools that make them easy to use in the
classroom.

You can find these primary source sets and a teacher s guide to analyzing
oral histories at the following url s:
