Mural in the Oregon State Capitol depicting the wagon train migration of 1843. Echoes of Oregon History, 1837-1859 Table of Contents Oregon territorial history - View a brief narrative of Oregon's pre-statehood history. Chronology of events - Note the most significant events related to Oregon from Spanish exploration in 1543 to statehood in 1859. Historical documents - View images of original documents and put them in perspective using transcripts, background information, key terms, and discussion questions. Introduction Welcome to the Web version of Echoes of Oregon, a packet of document facsimiles with an accompanying instructor's manual available from the Oregon State Archives. It has been designed to encourage the use of primary sources in high school history classes. With the assistance of an advisory committee of classroom teachers, the twenty-four documents in Echoes were selected from the records of Oregon's Provisional and Territorial Governments, which are in the custody of the Oregon State Archives. This record group contains over 14,000 separate documents, and it provides an unusually detailed and immediate view of life in Oregon from 1837 to 1859. Echoes of Oregon is designed to supplement textbook treatments of American history by exposing students to these records, which are the raw material of history. Echoes has the following objectives:

(skip primary site navigation) (skip to page detail) Home Site Map ... Gov-to-Gov State Archives (skip section navigation) State Archives Contact State Archives Records Services ... Black Marriage Record, 1865 Teaching with Documents Missouri Images From the Past Teaching with Documents Teaching with documents is not new to social studies instructors. We have long read and discussed with students the importance of documents in the history of our nationthe Mayflower Compact, the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, etc.but have generally ignored the use of local documents as teaching tools. Few such documents were at hand, even for classes in the history of Missouri. Missouri: Images from the Past is an effort to bring more local history into the classroom by enabling social studies teachers to put local documents (primary sources) into the hands of students and by providing guidance for the study of those documents. The documents are not intended to replace the textbook, but to enrich classroom instruction by introducing students to local history bearing on subjects under discussion. The Documents Forty-one documents from the holdings of the Missouri State Archives have been scanned and numbered chronologically, from Missouri's territorial days through the Civil War. A typed verbatim transcription is provided for each. By dealing with such topics as deeds, elections, land claims, marriages, naturalizations, roads, slavery, and wills, the documents provide glimpses into how government and events touched the lives of ordinary people, not just the rich and famous. It might be well for the students to compare handwritten documents with the transcriptions to see the difficulties researchers sometimes encounter in deciphering words and sentences.

Textbooks about history written for children's use in homeschool or classroom. Our books teach children about the Renaissance, American history and other subjects with the use of lively narrative. PEMBLEWICK PRESS Books About History for the Classroom and the Home School Pemblewick Press is committed to providing middle school students with challenging yet kid-friendly books about history. They have proven themselves to be ideal for the classroom as well as the home school (Grades 6-9) There is much more to the study of history than timelines, charts, maps, and lists of battles. These resources are important, but isn't history, in fact, a collection of stories about humanity? Our books focus upon this story element. After carefully setting the stage, they present a colorful cast of characters, who draw the student into their world and open his/her eyes to the challenges and complexities of a particular moment in time. Who was the first emperor of China? Why are dragons loved in the East and feared in the West? Where did the first Americans come from? How did the Incas keep track of business transactions? Who was Sitting Bull? What was Galileo's dilemma? When did Alexander realize that Aristotle was wrong? What is a Renaissance Man? The answers to questions like these can be found in the books in our series, which bring to life the early cultures of China, Greece, Mesopotamia, Egypt, and the Americas as well as the Renaissance in Europe. Our books are written by Suzanne Strauss Art, a veteran teacher and author of over a dozen books for middle school. Her works are extremely well researched and are filled with historical detail, yet written in such a lively style that they are hard to put down.

The Library of Congress Roebling and the Brooklyn Bridge New York and the Brooklyn Bridge from Brooklyn Taking the Long View, 1851-1991 On June 12 , 1806, John A. Roebling, civil engineer and designer of the Brooklyn Bridge, was born in Muehlhausen, Prussia. The Brooklyn Bridge, Roebling's greatest achievement, spans the East River to connect Manhattan with Brooklyn. For nearly a decade after its completion, the bridge, with a main span of 1595 feet, was the longest suspension bridge in the world. Steel wire cable, invented and manufactured by Roebling, made the structure possible. When the Brooklyn Bridge was opened you had to pay three cents to cross it until it was paid for. When they opened the bridge everybody went to see it..It took them 14 years to build the Brooklyn bridge. David A. Lawrence New York, New York, Dorothy West, interviewer, September 6, 1938.

Oral History in the Teaching of U.S. History by Carl R. Siler March 1996 Oral history is a stimulating classroom activity and an exciting process designed to increase student involvement in a United States history class and improve student understanding of the historical topic. Further, oral history involves students directly in a method of historical inquiry, which includes the organization and presentation of data acquired directly from another person. WHY HAVE STUDENTS CONDUCT AN ORAL HISTORY PROJECT? An oral history project, regardless of the historical topic being investigated or its duration, helps students understand all phases of designing, implementing, and completing an activity. Students of all learning and comprehension levels can use the oral history process to increase their active involvement in the study of United States history. An oral history project is an attempt to preserve a small segment of a relatively recent historical period as viewed through the eyes, experiences, and memories of people who lived during that time. Capturing their experiences and memories on either video or audio tape is invaluable. Over a period of time, memories can fade and those feelings or emotions associated with the events can easily be lost or altered by time. An oral history project involving local participants is an exciting method of providing students the opportunity to "experience" history firsthand, which makes the learning of United States history a more valuable experience and places local history within the overall context of United States history. Participants are eager to share their experiences with students. Students are enthralled to hear the stories of the participants and usually cannot wait to share them with the rest of the class.

Source: ERIC Clearinghouse for Social Studies/Social Science Education Bloomington IN. Teaching the 20th-Century History of the United States. ERIC Digest. It is important to reaffirm the teaching of recent United States history in secondary schools. Diane Ravitch and Chester E. Finn (1987, 84) state this well: "If we think it important that they [17-year-old students of 1986] understand the three decades between the Second World War and their own sixth birthdays [in 1975], we cannot expect this instructional job to be done for them by the daily newspapers or the nightly news; we have to teach this period as the history that it now is." Unfortunately, there are several obstacles to teaching this period of history, including time constraints, student apathy for the subject, and limited help from textbooks. This ERIC Digest (1) examines the coverage of 20th-century United States history; (2) discusses the consequences of limited coverage for student learning; (3) provides ideas on improvement of teaching and learning 20th-century United States history; and (4) lists ERIC resources dealing with all these facets of the topic.
