In our next issue:
Explore why Going to the Sources provides an
excellent opportunity to examine history. We will look
at the topic of slavery through letters, diaries and
slave narratives. Top scholars will explain how to read
a document closely, how to use material culture as a
primary source, and how to use photographs and oral
history in the classroom.
Do you have any model lesson plans that make use of primary
sources such letters and diaries?
Do you have examples of what went right or what went wrong
in your classroom relating to this topic?
Send us your stories and suggestions, and we will
feature the best ones in the next issue of History Now!
