Teaching Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Sources Printable and Digital Bundle

This extensive, highly differentiated bundle contains two printable and digital products with a wide variety of resources to teach students about primary, secondary, and tertiary sources. These products are aligned with Core Curriculum Standards and most state standards!

The activities in these products will give students practice with identifying primary, secondary, and tertiary sources, as well as teach them the differences and reliability of each type of source. The writing activity encourages students to reflect on their own lives and the world around them by asking them to consider artifacts they may create on a daily basis that would provide someone with knowledge about their culture.

Our digital products offer a variety of unique features to meet the needs of your students. We offer three levels of differentiation for most of our activities, including Standard, Differentiated with Audio, and Advanced. Standard activities are created for students on an average ability level for their grade. These activities are typically multiple choice (with four answer choices) and can include feedback, as in the digital interactive task cards. Our differentiated resources include audio accommodations and less answer choices for students who are below grade level or require testing accommodations. The advanced resources provide students with a challenge by asking them to craft and type their own responses. 

Self-Grading activities are included!
