[LM_NET] HIT: ELEM Jamestown/Starving Time

[Alaina DeHaven <ajdehaven@GMAIL.COM>]

Thank you to all of you who contributed!  My original Target is below
followed by people's suggestions:

 Hi everyone,
>
> I am currently in a graduate program for Library Media, and have been
> browsing the postings and archives for ideas.  I was talking to a friend who
> teaches 4th grade, and telling her how much collective knowledge there is on
> LM_NET.  She would love some advice if anyone can help:
>
> "I would like my class to do a research project on Jamestown to go along
> with a website that investigates the Starving Time. I would like them to
> pick a perspective (women, children, indentured servants, laborers,
> gentlemen) and find out more about aspects of daily life before, during, and
> after the Starving Time. I would love to find some better research materials
> (websites or books or kid-friendly articles) to help them find this type of
> information (a way to access primary sources would be good, too!)"
>
> I searched the archives, but mainly found old postings with dead links.
> The 2 sites below I did find for her, but I was wondering if anyone had any
> other ideas (about perspectives in general, websites, books, articles,
> primary sources...).
