This is a self guided activity, therefore, I should not hear any talking. If you have a question, raise your hand and I will be with you as quickly as possible. This should be a quick review for many of us. There is no noise, so we should not need headphones.

Why do we need to understand the difference between primary and secondary sources?

Throughout the year we will be interacting with primary and secondary sources.

We will be asked to examine, analyze, and interpret such sources.

You will use primary and secondary sources to complete your projects in every class.

PracticeUsing the notes you just took from the

video, identify the following sources as primary or secondary.

If you finish early, work on your Enrichment Reading.
