Resources
For this lesson we would need a computer for each student so that they would be able to do in class work. This way they would be able to access both the Library of Congress along with the Fakebook account. They students would also need to be able to use the school library to find out more information about their historical figures. This lesson is simple enough to just have one teacher distribute the information and help the students find their information.
