Celebrate the Century!

Check out these Internet scavenger hunts celebrating U.S. History from the 1900s.

How many immigrants passed through Ellis Island?
How long did it take to build the Panama Canal?
In the days of child labor, what did "breaker boys" do?
How did "Babe" Ruth get his name?

Those are some of the questions students will answer as they work these ten Internet scavenger hunts tied to stamps in the U.S. Postal Service's Celebrate the Century program.

These scavenger hunts are set up so teachers in the one-computer classroom can print them out and use them as a learning center. Or teachers in a computer lab setting can let their students surf away on the safe sites we've chosen; the students might work alone or in teams as they learn about the people, places, and events that made each decade of this century so special.

However you use these scavenger hunts, they're a great way for students to learn about U.S. history, and a great way to "Celebrate the Century"!
