Internet Search = ** 1. **** St. Augustine **** : History of the Nation's Oldest City ** = = ** []  ** = =** This website is a condensed version of what you would see when visiting this destination. It provides history of the city. The website delves into the cities past and brings a realistic view with the use of modern present day pictures. This website would be interesting for my 4th grade class to see what an old city with a tumultuous past looks like in the here and now. The website has links that provides more information that would aid students with completing projects. **= = 2. St. Augustine History  = = []  = = This website has it all. For my fourth grade class it would provide a plethora of information that covers so many topic areas on St. Augustine. This would be a great starting point for a strident that has limited experience with internet experience. I feel this way because this easy search would give a student the confidence to possibly expand his or her computer searches to look for more obscure topics. I think this site provides the student with instant success. = = 3. The City that Was Never Conquered  = =  []   = = This website would be of interest to the fourth grade because it gives a written timeline. It provides old time pictures and contains the names of the historical people and events. The site promotes Florida and America and portrays our state and country in a positive light. This site would give my students a sense of pride for their state and community. = = 4. Florida Museum of Natural History  = = http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/staugustine/intro.htm  = = This website is an online exhibit that the students would use as an interactive activity in which would aid them in learning our States history. It is complete with sound effects, and visuals. = = 5. Augustine Links and Educational Resources for Students and Teachers  = = []  = = This website would be very good for my fourth grade students For a group project, each participant would or could access a different link. Each of these sites provides different historical venues as well as a virtual tour sponsored by the National Guard. This site would appeal to various learning types found in classrooms. The site covers art and history. = = **Literature List**  = = 1. Title: **Castillo de San Marcos**  = = Author: Charles W. Maynard  = = Publisher: The Rosen Publishing Group  = = Publish Date: 2002  = = ISBN:0-8239-5841-8  = = This book is written for the elementary grade level. Some of the vocabulary that would be unfamiliar to some students is printed in bold face. The book has a glossary to help students become familiar with the new words. The book is an account of the beginning history starting with the discovery by Ponce de Leon, ending with what the fort is today. The book is colorful in both text and pictures and would be an asset in our classroom. = = 2. Title: **Stories of old St. Augustine**  = = Author: Virginia Edwards  = = Publisher: ** Historic Print & Map, St. Augustine, FL ** = = Publish Date: 2005  = = ISBN: 0-9729463-2-2  = = This book does not concentrate upon the mainstream of the big events in St. Augustine history, but rather upon the small tributaries - such as an exciting event, a reminiscence of a life, or the growth and expansion of one of St. Augustine's institutions. = = 3. Title: **Fort Matanzas**  = = Author: U.S. Congressional Budget Office  = = Publisher:  U.S. G.P.O. (2000) = = Publish Date: 2002  = = ISBN:  B000113N70 = = This hand book published by the U.S. government, complies the history of St. Augustine from the beginning with Pedro Menendez de Aviles establishing the first base camp that eventually grew into St. Augustine. The book covers waterways/inlets, war, attacks and military life for the period. This seems to be an area that would appeal the boys. Overall this is a good resource for the fourth grade. = = 4.

The publishers have enlarged the format, used larger type, added historical maps, historical photographs, modern color photographs, and some additional text.

Harris Company, under the Auspices of the Historical Society of St. Augustine, Fl.  = = Publish Date: 1927  = = ISBN: none  = = This I think is my favorite of the books that I listed. It contains information on the discovery of Florida, the Cathedral Archives that date from 1594 to the present (1927). What I like about this book is that I could have student use this to make their own booklet to update the booklet to modern day. This is a project that could be done using paper and pen, PowerPoint or photostory3. = = 6.
