[LM_NET] Suggestions needed

[Mitch Lawson <MLawson@NWS.K12.IN.US>]

I have a 6th grade teacher in need of help.  She is starting to plan for 
next year where she will be teaching social studies (world history) for 
the first time.  She would like to teach the class almost entirely through 
novels.   Thus, I have two questions.  First what titles would you 
recommend and what historical period do they address?  Second do you know 
anyone who teaches social studies this way who might be willing to share 
ideas or suggestions through email?
Thanks for your suggestions and help,
