Question

I am doing a unit on public transportation in New York city for my 3rd grade class and I am having a little trouble finding interesting and fun websites that my students could use to get information on past and present types of public transportation.
Do you know any website/s that could be helpful for my students?

Answer 1

Here are a couple of websearches:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all&q=history+of+public+transportation+in+New+York+city&btnG=Search

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=public+transportation+in+New+York+city&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&num=10&lr=&as_filetype=&ft=i&as_sitesearch=&as_qdr=all&as_rights=&as_occt=any&cr=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&safe=images

If you don't find useful websites in here, then re-search, using different search terms.

If you need help learning how to search, including how to choose good search terms, go here and scroll down to the links under <b>HOW TO SEARCH THE INTERNET</b>:
