Abstract	"Teaching with Historic Places" is a program administered by the National Park Service's National Register of Historic Places that identifies ways teachers can share the stories that historic places have to tell. The program creates classroom-ready educational materials based on properties that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. To date there are 55 published lesson plans with an additional 43 in development for publication. The lessons feature well-known landmarks like Gettysburg (Pennsylvania) and Manassas (Virginia). They also present units about lesser know sites like the Mandan and Hidatsa villages in the Knife River valley of North Dakota and the "Black Metropolis" of southside Chicago (Illinois). The program meets the requirements of the National Council for the Social Studies "Curriculum Standards for the Social Studies." In addition, professional development for teachers and preservation personnel is available. The inservice program includes published materials and training activities. (JH)
