Homeschool Nations - New Brunswick, Canada

Urban legends and great storytelling

My husband was watching a show on urban legends the other night, and one little story between the segments caught his attention-- it was about a flood that happened in Boston back in 1919. He asked the kids today if they knew about it-- which they didn't--- and then asked me-- which I also didn't-- and so then went and searched it online. He got a return to a site that is really interesting-- some of it's educational, and so could be tied in with your lessons, and some of it is just plain fun. Kind of reminds me of Paul Harvey's The Rest of the Story.

The site is called American Storyteller, and it's worth checking out.

And by the way.... you can find out all about that flood HERE. It seems molasses isn't neccessarily that slow after all, running uphill in January.

Take care, and happy homeschooling!
