Hunting Historical Connections This skill unit is different than the previous ones you have done. The skill that I want you to develop is how to use the internet to improve your historical research skills. The numbered list below is of two historical terms - you will need to resarch the two terms and make a historical connection. For example if I were to list the terms Jimmy MdDonald and Walt Disney; You would research those two names and find a connection. In this case the connection is Mickey Mouse.
