Description
Primary Sources help teachers integrate authentic resources into the classroom. Primary sources capture students' curiosity about the past, so they naturally begin to use critical thinking to analyze historical events. This kit expands the study of geography beyond the confines of the classroom, builds visual literacy, critical-thinking skills, and global awareness. Examining Geography kit includes: Eight Photograph Cards including Earthquake in Haiti; South Korean Protest at DMZ; Hand Washing in Ghana; and more; Eight Primary Sources including Railroad advertisement during the push West in America; U.S. Geological Survey illustration of the water cycle; Copernican system of the universe; and more; Teacher's Guide including lesson plans, student activities, and document-based assessments; and Digital resources including student reproducibles and additional primary sources.
