National Archives - Document Analysis Worksheets

Document analysis is the first step in working with primary sources. Teach your students to think through primary source documents for contextual understanding and to extract information to make informed judgments.
Follow this progression:
Use these worksheets - for photos, written documents, artifacts, posters, maps, cartoons, videos, and sound recordings - to teach your students the process of document analysis.

Don't stop with document analysis though. Analysis is just the foundation. Move on to activities in which students use the primary sources as historical evidence, like on DocsTeach.org.

The first few times you ask students to work with primary sources, and whenever you have not worked with primary sources recently, model careful document analysis using the worksheets. Point out that the steps are the same each time, for every type of primary source:

1. Meet the document.

2. Observe its parts.

3. Try to make sense of it.

4. Use it as historical evidence.

Once students have become familiar with using the worksheets, direct them to analyze documents as a class or in groups without the worksheets, vocalizing the four steps as they go.

Eventually, students will internalize the procedure and be able to go through these four steps on their own every time they encounter a primary source document. Remind students to practice this same careful analysis with every primary source they see.

Worksheet for Understanding Perspective in Primary Sources - For All Students and Document Types

This tool helps students identify perspective in primary sources and understand how backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences shape point of view.

This exploration of history focuses on life from a child's perspective. Read and enjoy. Click on images you want to see in full.

Why did people come to Flagstaff ? They came because water was available for people, crops, and animals. They came to the San Francisco Peaks for religious reasons. They came for the lumber. They came to enjoy the beauty of the Peaks.

Imagine that it is 11,000 years ago. The area was cooler and wetter than today. "Paleo-Indian" children lived with their parents in a group of about 40 people. Their fathers hunted mammoths--huge, shaggy elephants--for food. They were nomadic, which means they moved from place to place.

Imagine now that it is 2,500 years ago. Prehistoric Puebloan Indian children in the area made clothing, such as sandals, and baskets out of plant material. A favorite toy might have been a split-twig figurine.

One thousand years ago the Pueblo people built elaborate cities like Wupatki. The kids worked in the fields, growing corn, squash, beans, and cotton. They probably loved to listen to the traders who came to their village from the south and brought wonderful seashells. They played with clay figurines: miniature people, dogs, and houses. Diaries to the Past

When the Spanish conquistadors--who were soldiers and explorers searching for gold--entered Northern Arizona in 1540, they wrote intheir diaries about meeting the Hopi, Yavapai, and Havasupai Indians, who gathered pinon nuts and hunted mule deer near the Peaks.

The importance of community helpers is a building block of civics understanding. In this episode, children investigate who community helpers are, and how they have changed over time through exploration of a rich photograph (from the Library of Congress) of a man delivering ice to a schoolhouse in 1899.

Children explore the photograph by revealing it in sections, observing the details they find (See), and working with in-game character Ella to figure out what jobs the helpers are doing. Children collect elements of the photograph to their journal, and use what they have collected to help them decide what the jobs are (Think), and then to connect those jobs with community helpers today (Wonder).
