COMING SOON - A brand new look for the EIUTPS web site. We are working with the wonderful designers at EIU to develop a new look and more user-friendly format for our site. While we are working you may notice that some pages appear as text only, this is temporary as we complete the transition. Thank you for understanding!

Teaching with Lincoln - Teaching with Lincoln was created by Teaching with Primary Sources consortium members as a tool for educators of any grade level or discipline as a repository of Lincoln related resources for teachers, especially highlighting those which incorporate the digitized primary sources of the Library of Congress. The site is divided into three main sections: two timelines that represent events during the life of President Lincoln Personal and Professional, and Additional Resources which are items that don't fit into one space on the timeline . After selecting a timeline, you may click on a particular year to find links to Teacher Resources, Student Resources, Library of Congress Primary Sources and Other Resources.
