The pedagogy of success behind story, source, scholarship:

https://bit.ly/43rsKpy

When I started my procedure of historical enquiry unit each year, I wanted to introduce the all three skills. I was looking for a way to tell students about what the study of historical involves, how it is structured. But...I needed a way to explicitly teach the key skills concept that was engaging and efficient. When I just talked AT students, they looked disinterested.

Well if you know how this feels, this task is for you.

That's why I created this story, source, and scholarship resource. They enjoyed the examples and questions that encouraged the collaborative sharing of their ideas as they worked through the task. I could see that every student was enjoying the lesson, participating in the discussions, and understanding the concepts. It became a life saver.

It is a great introduction to the complexity that is involved in small events in history; easy, interactive, and engaging. I've found that it helps explicitly outline all the skills the students need to develop.
