=Primary Sources and Analysis=


 * The use of primary sources, be they photographs, textual narratives, posters, music or other relevant sources lends authenticity to the study of history and cultures. These primary sources also allow our students to think like historians in their efforts to interpret them and infer their meaning using the analytical tools at their disposal.**


 * Place the primary sources you have selected for our class on this page. You can either attach documents, photographs, files or links to these sources on this page. Be sure to identify that these orginate with you by posting your name above the sources that you submit here. We will use several of these primary sources to generate questions, infer meaning and engage in a dialogue about how these sources can be used enhance critical thinking.**
