“Last Seen” Has Excellent Teaching Materials About The Formerly Enslaved Searching For Family Members

 

Last Seen has been on The Best Sites Where Students Can Transcribe Historical Texts list for awhile because it offers students, and anyone else, the opportunity to help transcribe old ads from formerly enslaved people who were searching for family members.

They’ve now expanded their website to include excellent lessons, and examples of student work created from them, for teachers to use.

I’m adding this info to:
