QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
PKaskel7 re: World War II Webquest/Internet Activity History Channel
When I downloaded the webquest, I did not see an answer key. Where can I find it? Can that be e-mailed to me as soon as possible?
April 24, 2013
History Wizard (TpT Seller)
I apologize over any confusion over an answer key. Besides the first couple of questions, all of the students’ answers will be different. They just need to list out four key facts for each section of the webquest. I use the webquest for discussion and give students point for completion.

dianayau re: Primary Sources Worksheet Collection for American and World History
If I buy the complete collection that is on sale for $56, do I get all of your worksheets including primary sources worksheets? Will this packet work for both my world cultures and US History courses?

History Wizard (TpT Seller)
Thank you for your interest in my American and World History Worksheet Collection. When you buy the complete collection you get all of the worksheets including the primary sources worksheets. I have taught World History and American History for the last eight years and the lesson plans have worked great for both topics.

Silly, but I use to live in Shakopee, back in the early 70s. I went to Pearson and the two years I was there, we chose the school nickname as Pearson Pencil Pushers. Mr. Kirshbaum or Kirshmeir... was my teacher for Social Studies.
Sorry to bother you - I'm looking forward to using the ancient to modern indea web quest.

I apologize it looks like they changed the site in the last week. Website has worked since 2005. Here is one link that still works with the worksheet.

I am going to take down the worksheet today. If you would like a different similar lesson plan for free let me know.

Just to be helpful - All the same questions are on there, the numbering is just off. Also, on the answer key the link to click is missing between #21 & #22 (not that it is a big deal), and, again, the link is incorrect on question #26 of the student page (actually #21). It should be Grave Goods - I think. I had my class figure it out. Like, I said.... they love these assignments!

Bangsthomas:
Please accept my apologizes. I am very sorry about the typos. The numbering must have changed when I reposted it last month. If you would be willing to give me your e-mail I will attach the changes I made tonight and I will also attach one other lesson plan under $6.00 of your choice for free. Otherwise, I will post the Daily Life in Egypt Webquest for free on Friday, so you can download it.

I have purchased your ancient civilization web quests. There is a problem with the Egypt one. The copy for the kids is different than the answer key you provide. The kids version starts at number 6 and the questions are not the same as on the answer key. There is also a mistake with #26 on the student copy. I think they should go to Grave Goods instead of Games/Activities. Is there anyway you can fix this and send me a copy?
I bought the Ancient Mesopotamia webquest first and the kids loved it. Then I purchased the whole set.
Thanks,
Pamela Thomas
