Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knows of any resources or websites that would help our 5th and 6th grade students research Cuba, Syria, and Germany and their cultures (the three places that the characters in Refugee are from)?  We have two databases and the state website but was wondering if there are any other ones you were willing to share that might benefit with research.  Our students are looking into the cultures of these places to get background information.  Resources do not have to reflect any specific time frame in their histories (we are looking at past and current information).  Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can provide!

Respectfully,
