This is the site for the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz. There are great resources for jazz lessons as well as lesson plans for grades 5, 8, and 11. Some of the resources available are timelines, style sheets for the different types of jazz, and a glossary of jazz terms. The style sheets are very detailed and helps to clarify the differences between similar styles.

Information Please has been providing authoritative answers to all kinds of factual questions since 1938—first as a popular radio quiz show, then starting in 1947 as an annual almanac, and since 1998 on the Internet. Many things have changed since 1938, but not our dedication to providing reliable information, in a way that engages and entertains. The site includes timelines of various eras of history, along with listing of events from many facets of life by year.
