Primary Source History Stations are unique because they allow students to explore primary sources in a guided, engaging way. Students will learn more about historical people, events, and traditions than they could ever learn from a textbook! Quick Overview of Primary Source History Stations: * Students will visit five stations. Each station contains a primary source image or text. * Students will examine the source and answer questions about it on a group answer sheet. The group answer sheet encourages cooperative learning and makes less papers for the teacher to grade. Teacher win! This is a print ‘n go resource. All the teacher needs to do is print, copy, and put the station sheets in five separate places around the classroom. Remember to follow my store to receive new product updates and sales alerts!
