The articles, along with pictures and headlines from that era, will allow for students to have a historical perspective on the events that happened throughout history. They will be able to have a variety of different perspectives rather than one perspective from a textbook or an internet source. Primary sources should be what makes history come alive for the students.  Being able to examine primary sources objectively is the key in being able to categorize history into manageable units and time frames.  Reading Like A Historian will be a valuable tool in guiding students through the process that will assist them in becoming a better student in the study of history. In our opinion, this is new terminology for what we have have referred to as the hook. Using this resource will assist in making those real world connections for the students. However, we must codify our reflection. In a perfect world or classroom the teacher would have unlimited time to follow the process thoroughly. But with our limited time we will be amending the full process to best fit our individual classes. This will be a an extremely helpfully resource.

I see myself using Reading Like a Historian for a variety of ways. The articles are great ways to demonstrate time period documents. The articles show great perspective from that era. Students will be able to see historical perspective which is relevant to time periods that we are studying in our standards. Students will be able to see a variety of perspectives instead of being limited. Adding these primary sources will allow students to see that these events are real instead of just something in a book.

The book provides primary sources that not only gives information about  varies world events but also  provides activties that forces the student to think critically about that time period. I will now ask question, ( create an anchor chart) * Who wrote the article * What was the author's point of view  * Why was the article written *  When was the article written * Is the source believable, Why or Why Not?  Questions like these intiate critical thinking in our students which inevitable leads to  higher test scores and  helps  our students develop  21st century skills.

I do feel that students who acquire these skills will be able to increase their scores on assessments in and out of the classroom.]]> 2016-09-15 18:21:22 UTC https://padlet.com/judywright1/x8f17thgqic9/wish/124171471 https://padlet.com/judywright1/x8f17thgqic9/wish/124173365 2016-09-15 18:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/judywright1/x8f17thgqic9/wish/124173365 https://padlet.com/judywright1/x8f17thgqic9/wish/124188967 Reading Like a Historian offers teachers and students alike, the opportunity to examine primary and/or secondary source material in a way that encourages both to think in a way that expands the learning beyond the surface. The publication can be a great tool to grow students into thinking with the intent of problem solving. One way to implement the strategies offered in Reading Like a Historian would be to chunk the information by assigning different parts of a source to students; having open discussions on various student perspectives of the material, and modeling how a student should behave as a student researcher.
