Our youngest is doing a school project on Rome.If anyone out there has any hints, tips, pointers etc. please do drop me a line.
Better still any Roman or Italian looking in - please get in touch as your mundane offerings could be a God-send.
It could be to do with Ancient Rome, Roman culture, the Vatican, modern Rome - her portfolio is quite wide.
Molto grazie!
I found great books in Rome earlier this month called something like "Rome Reconstructed": if you google it, some similar stuff comes up; reconstructions of now ruined buildings. Might be useful.

(I found this site useful when preparing some stuff to take on a family trip to Italy a month ago)
Internet sourcebook at Fordham has lots of stuff:

(but depending how old daughter is, might drown in quantity of stuff - prps best to use secondary sources first and then maybe dig out the most interesting text quoted there)
fwiw.
