Sixth Grade World History - Mr. Lemin

Internet Links

   

    For more information on any world history subject, Usborne's Quicklinks 
are very helpful. Click on the link below, and when you get to the site, 
type in the keyword you wish to find and click the GO key.

    This is an excellent website for viewing representations of the Gods of 
Ancient Egypt.

    If you would like to create a "cartouche" (a royal signature in hiero- 
glyphics) of your name, click on the link below and enter your name in the 
box. Then click "engrave." [Remember: it's not exactly the way it would have 
appeared in Ancient Egypt, but it's a fun way to see this picture form of 
writing.] You can even print it out!

=====  A Personal Note from Mr. Lemin  =====

THIS AREA IS [STILL] UNDER CONSTRUCTION!
                        
    Please bear with me - I am new to providing Internet links to the 
various chapters. As you can see above, I only have a few. I would 
appreciate any assistance you might have for the Middle Ages, the 
Renaissance, the Reformation, the Age of Exploration, the Industrial 
Revolution, or the French Revolution.
    
    NEW!
    Recently, I came across the following sites that offered 'general
knowledge' in social studies. Please let me know if you find anything useful:

1. funsocialstudies.learninghaven.com

2. unmuseum.org (This is a little like Ripley's 'Believe It or Not.')

    [ Please remember that any link should be age-appropriate for sixth 
grade. ]

    ALSO: I highly recommend the YAHOOLIGANS search link below. It is 
very "kid-friendly" and it has been extremely useful to me in my research!
