Primary+Documents

Saturday, November 12th Concurrent Session (10:15am-11:15am)

Collaboration/Curriculum • All //Room 208// What are primary documents and how can they be used in the classroom? Whether you work in elementary, middle or high school, primary documents are an excellent tool for teaching culture, history, media and all the literacies! Join me in exploring how to “dissect” a primary document with your students; some fun collaborative project ideas; and most importantly... where to look for them. Brief introductions to government websites such as NARA, LOC, Smithsonian and some University primary document collections will get you started on a fun journey into the past... and how we’re making primary documents right this very minute! //Connie Williams, Teacher Librarian, Petaluma Joint UHSD//
