If you use Google Maps this could be great in your classroom. From their site, "This site is an extenstive compendium of documentaries, in the form of interactive Google Maps on Historic Events. In a sense it is a library of maps that allow you to do much more than just watch and read. You get to digitally experience the event by finding and zooming in on the locations you read about in the related eBooks. You get to follow the explorer from location marker to location marker on almost a day-by-day basis. You get to see up close the actual ancient ruins, forts, and pyramids. Many of the maps have Google Earth KML files that enable you to digitally walk the map in 3D and experience the exploration for yourself."
I looked at the WWII battles but there is so much more at this site. Click here to visit it.
