You might try looking at the Web site for the geneaology department of the Allen 
County Public Library (Ft. Wayne, IN). It's the second-largest genealogy collection 
in the U.S.
Go to http://www.acpl.lib.in.us/geneaology/index.html 
<https://mail.nycboe.net/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.acpl.lib.in.us/geneaology/index.html>
 
You'll find resources for incorporating genealogical research into school curricula 
(choose "Youth & Genealogy from the main page of the Genealogy Department).



You might also check out the National Genealogical Society's page at
http://www.ngsgenealogy.org 
<https://mail.nycboe.net/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.ngsgenealogy.org> 
Click on "Learning Center" and then choose "Youth Resources" from the pop-up menu.

Finally, you might try "Family Search" at http://www.familysearch.org 
<https://mail.nycboe.net/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.familysearch.org> 
This site is maintained by the Latter Day Saints, whose Family History Library in 
Salt Lake holds the largest genealogy collection in the U.S. This site has a lot of 
useful information, but it's also a daunting site to make your way through.
