Today I visited the sfmuseum.org website. It is a virtual museum of the City of San Francisco. I really like to use this website to have the students go on a scavenger hunt to learn some history in a different part of the United States especially during the westward expansion. Besides the gold rush era it also provides some of the history of the earthquake disasters and I can compare Texas disasters with California disasters. I enjoyed the photo gallery they provided with a synopsis of the history that went with that particular picture. The flyers that were passed around during the gold rush era. It has alot of history that you can learn from if you are teaching students that part of our United States. Great site really enjoyed it...
