Assign web tasks to your students using the "to do" lists:
1. Go to this site or use a Google search, keeping track of the URL for the site(s) you use. http://www.teachersfirst.com/getsource.cfm?id=1564
2. Find three specific events or accomplishments in the life of Abraham Lincoln that he would have written about in his journal.
3. In your blog, write a journal entry as if you were Lincoln reflecting on one of these events/accompishments. Remember that he did not have the benefit of historic hindsight to judge his own actions.
