All content has been gathered with middle and high school students in mind, as well as references to educator's resources and lesson plans for use in the classroom. Homeschoolers should find this site particularly useful. Much of the information pertaining to American history is available on the Internet. From an educational standpoint this is good news. However, the information is stored in so many locations that it can be hard to use in the classroom.
Some sites have only partial information, some have too much.
Some are revisionist versions of history, and some are not at all factual. The goal of America's HomePage is to consolidate this information in a form easily usable in the classroom, allowing students and educators to access the information they need without having to search for it first. All of the content in America's HomePage has been meticulously researched to make sure it is appropriate and accurate, and suitable for viewing by middle and high school students. The Virtual Tour of Washington, DC is an interactive fieldtrip to our nation's Capital.
