Classroom Projects

Tools to use in the classroom for analyzing historical documents or photographs can be found here, as well as resources for History Day projects.  The SMA welcomes sample projects used successfully in classrooms.  The "Newspaper Project," used in middle school for Washington State History, is one example.  The SMA can post your project for students of any level to share with other teachers.
