In 2012 I created a list of free online music education games that spread like wildfire. It was then that I realized the need for a list of free online education games for all subject areas and thus began gathering my collection of what has now become one humongous list of free online education games. I’ve divided the subjects into 10 key areas and will be sharing each subject’s list over the course of 10 days. You can find the links to each day’s post on the One Humongous List of Free Online Education Games landing page. Today’s subject–Social Studies. For your browsing convenience, each game list is organized into categories and/or grade levels if available. Have fun learning and playing at the same time!
