Publisher Description:
The Primary Sources series is the winner of the 2015 Academics' Choice Awards for the 2015 Smart Book Award in recognition of mind-building excellence. The U.S. Presidents Primary Sources is a pack of 20 primary source documents that are relevant to the history of the U.S. Presidents. The U.S. Presidents Primary Sources includes historical documents, maps, photographs, political cartoons, lithographs, diagrams, letters in a mix of color and black-and-white, and sepia finishes. Each primary resource is printed on sturdy 8.5" X 11" cardstock.
What a great complement to your history lessons! Each pack has 20 8.5"x11" card-stock images of maps, photographs, illustrations, original documents & letters, political cartoons and more that you can use in a variety of ways: research or reference; gallery walks or literary analysis; reinforcing the Common Core skills of critical thinking, analysis, point of view, compare/contrast, and sequencing events; add them to a timeline project. A couple of the images were hard to read since they are photos of the original, but that was because the print was small on the document (the Texas Declaration of Independence from the Westward Expansion packet.) Many of the documents are black and white while photos of paintings are in color. You could laminate these or put them in plastic sleeves in a binder for reference too. So many applications for students in a homeschool environment, co-op, or traditional classroom. Check out the item numbers below on our website for a complete list of what is included in each packet. Some packets hold a more diverse collection while others include predominantly photographs. ~ Sara
