eight with a valuable resource as how to include primary sources in
a social studies curriculum along with a required social studies
textbook. The first section of this book contains descriptions with
relevant examples of primary documents and authentic artifacts that
are appropriate for incorporation into social studies classrooms.
In the second part of this book, the application of primary sources
for specific social studies instruction is presented. This book
specifically presents ways to use primary sources as means to
explore the community where the students reside, to make
connections to past and present events, and to research a specific
change agent in a particular place. Each chapter contains:
*questions and pedagogical strategies for criticallly reading,
viewing, and responding to varied authentic artifacts; *techniques
for interacting with primary materials; *modifications to meet the
needs of diverse learners; *assessment techniques; information tied
to technology and the "new literacies"; and *connections to the
National Curriculum Standards for the Social Studies (2010) and the
Common Core State Standards (2010).
