Texas Day by Day - TSHA

Texas State Historical Association historical “Texas Day by Day”
http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/daybyday/index.html
You can subscribe to this free, daily email capsule of Texas history. Each day, four or so events are selected from the centuries and a summary of each is written in a few lines. Each summary is accompanied by a few Handbook of Texas Online article hotlinks. The archive option enables you to check your birthday or any other day of interest.
The daily postings may be useful to print out (in enlarged size) for visual postings in a classroom, adding an element of change with continuity within the classroom management techniques. Maybe have the kids search the database for their birthdays. - WH
