I did a search fo weight loss (yes, my New Year's Resolution has already gone by the wayside!!) and got 129 hits, many of which were more health related (nursing and women's issues) than weight related. I found many of the sources very outdated in a realm where the information changes every week.
I also ran into an issue where when I clicked on the title and tried to access the book via table of contents, it said it wasn't available but when I accessed it directly from the search page, it was. Not sure if that's a glitch or me not using the site properly.
Honestly, I didn't really find what I would say is good information on Constitution Day. The internet was much more useful than this resource. I spent a lot of time looking and doubt a young person would have waited for me to find this info. Found several references to AP history but would have had to read through the book to find the information.
The third search of western history with Oklahoma publishers provided much more comprehensive results, in my opinion. Lots of information about Native American issues with regards to the army were available. I especially enjoyed browsing "When Buffalo Ran" by Charles Bird Grinnell
Overall, I wasn't impressed with this resource - it felt cumbersome.
As the lesson description of this resource indicates, beware of dated material. Health and technology hits here should be scrutinized or avoided. However, other material is just fine. I encourage you to take a look at what other bloggers found for Constitution Day. There are several good options. One way I find relevant material in here is to try search terms until I get something I want, and then look at the subjects for those and click for more. I agree that this resource is cumbersome, but it is available 24/7/365 when you're in a pinch! Thanks for your comments.
