Hello!

For lesson plans for all grades, the Web Sites tab of the Education LibGuide is a great place to start. The suggested sites include general information and several discipline-specific areas. Most sites include lesson plans and related materials.

In the General links, EDSITEment is a solid choice. A search of September 11 AND terrorist - I didn't have much luck with 9-11 - yielded a number of results. Be sure to click the tabs on the results page to see results from both EDSITEment and Verizon Thinkfinity.

A second choice in the General links is Merlot, which yielded a few results when searching September 11.

In the Social Sciences links, Smithsonian's History Explorer provided several results including "Teaching 9-11". The internal link was broken, but it should have gone here: http://www.911memorial.org/teach-learn.

Also in the Social Sciences, Digital History might be useful. The site is not searchable, but there is a "For Teachers" link in the left toolbar. There is a September 11 learning module, and there may be other resources in the teachers' area.

Another Social Sciences link, History Matters, offers results when searching "lesson plans" AND September.

Although it's a Science link, the American Museum of Natural History offers 3 interesting results for a search of September 11.

Good luck with this interesting topic!
