Social Studies and Literacy Planning Spring 2008 Web Resources

Korean War Resources The top two are lesson plans specific to the Korean War, and I didn't get the impression that was what you were looking for! However, there are some links to primary documents or other sites with good information as well. (Although the Discovery Education site has some broken links...)
