Mr. Hayes' Links

The following are a collection of links that are related to my class, interesting or just plain funny. If you would like to add an appropriate site, please let me know.

Somalian Stories: Find out what life was like in war-torn Somalia for these teenage immigrants to Australia.

Geography World: One of the best Geography sites out there!

CIA World Factbook: Everything you ever wanted to know about all the countries of the world, courtesy the CIA.

Substitute Teacher's Homepage: Now you know how they think & what they go through.

Age of Empires game series: Wow! Now this is a game! There are several different editions of this game, but all are great and very historically accurate...and, can you belive it-- fun? I highly recomend buying them. If you're interested, here's a FREE demo to download...it takes a while, though.

Civilization: Call to Power II...what a great addictive game! Yes, there's more strategy here, and yes, it has to do with history...but it's still completely addictive!

SETI at home: SETI stands for the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence...which means yes, they're looking for ET. You can help! Download their software for your computer and your computer can scan recorded radio waves for ET calling us!

Aztec Sun Stone: This is all about the large, carved stone used by the Aztecs to measure time. Also included are the rituals used to celebrate the different holidays. Interesting!
