History resources - intended for schools and teachers

School History.co.uk Mr Field's collection of resources is probably the best of sites for student teachers. Has worksheets and on-line activities organised as per NC. Also has lots of links to other history web sites.
Wolverhampton Grammar School History site Run by RJ Tarr. This is another excellent site with some on-line lessons, games and quizzes.
Schools History.org.uk Another good site, this time run by Mr D Moorhouse of Laisterdyke High School in Bradford. Good resources for students and also includes worksheets for use with years 7 to 9 plus some KS4.
History Learning Site Another very useful resource with information and images suitable for lesson use. Covers KS3 and KS4 and both history and politics at A-level.

Terry's home page - contains curriculum program and Resources and ideas about children's understanding of Time.
History Place American site, heavy on American History, but has some good stuff on Nazi Party and rise of Hitler
Institute for Historical Review American revisionist site. Much contentious material. In its own words:"revisionist perspectives about the Holocaust (including Auschwitz, Birkenau, Treblinka, Dachau, Majdanek, Sobibor, Chelmno, and Nazi gas chambers), as well as information about Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Pearl Harbor, Winston Churchill, WWII, Fred A Leuchter Jr., Stalinism and other topics."
