Description

Much attention is given to analyzing the source—and perspective or bias—of a historical document. Students can also consider the point of view of secondary sources. In doing so, teachers can align historical content with close reading, historical thinking, and text-based writing tasks. This presentation centers on a remarkable First Lady by first detailing how she is represented quite differently in trade books and how to position students to detect point of view using context clues from the divergent narratives.
