Another Great Way to use Google

Thought this was cool!  I can see students using it if they had to research something that happened years ago and then they could share the link to the actual newspaper article (in this case it was 1974)  as part of their project.  For example, I just typed in Richard Nixon Resigns and found this link:  

(Funny  that the  newspaper only cost 15 cents back then!)  What I thought was also neat was that you can click over to the side and see the whole newspaper so you can see the weather forecast, advertisements, other articles making the news, etc... from that time .



To check it out go to google and then search for "Google newspaper archive".  

Here is a video that shows how to look something up if you have trouble:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lq9oKtErzWU.
