Description: In this session, you’ll learn about Recollection Wisconsin (https://recollectionwisconsin.org/), a free digital library of primary source photographs, documents, maps, oral histories, and more that will spark students’ curiosity about the history of Wisconsin and their own communities. These primary sources come from a diverse set of 250 partner organizations - libraries, universities, historical societies, and museums - across the state. We’ve recently revamped our educator resources and added new themes requested by teachers, such as Famous Wisconsinites and Early Statehood. We’ve also created our Travel Back in Time series, highlighting historical photos of Wisconsin communities, small and large, from Ashland to Wilmot. Join this presentation to learn how the materials in Recollection Wisconsin can bring history to life in your classrooms!
