 * US History Blog- Very informative with links to many other quality Blogs for US History. Great discussions from many history buffs on numerous topics. Also some cool links to sites that offer new and interesting history teaching tools, sucah as a online Timeline creator with pictures you can upload and do a virtual slideshow for your classroom. Four books for sure! Published by Blogspot.com by an unknown author.**

 * Politcal Sicence/ Sociology BLog- Great discussion points for students for teacehers teaching more advanced classes and a few for regular American Government. Can also be used for a current eveents class or a global issues class if you have one at your school. I give it four books becasue it asks good thought provoking questions of it readers and provides manhy links to other blogs dealing with politcal science and social issues.

 * Politcial Science Blog- Geared towards the teacher not the student. Very high level discussion and topics found thorugh out the blog that I found very interesting and engaging. Will not likely benefit your clas direclty but will keep you informed and allow you to take bits and pieces to use in your classroom with your students. I give it three books becasue it is complicated and would be more for college students in grad school. Published by Tony Quain at Tony Quain.com.**
