During our Social Studies lesson, we had found how the names of some streets in Chinatown come about. An interesting website we had visited was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinatown,_Singapore. My pupils were surprised to know that Sago Street got its name because in the 1840s, there were a number of sago factories located there. Hence, IT is definitely a useful tool in learning about the history of Singapore. :)
