Must have for anyone who teaches history

I have worked in education and history museums for 20 years, and I have yet to find a more complete and entertaining guide for "doing" local history. Weitzman has compiled activities and ideas that teach all aspects of local and family history: using the objects, photographs, places and people that would otherwise be ignored as students go about their daily lives. The text is readable at the middle school level, yet adults will also find it fresh and interesting. Recommended activities require minimal materials and costs, and can be done in the classroom or at home. I use this book in planning all my classes. This book can also be used in planning multi-generational activities for schools or senior centers.
