This learning resource focuses on developing historical inquiry skills through the analysis of a primary source image, specifically an archaeological ceramic artifact from the period of 1600-1877 in the U.S. It guides students to use the 'See-Think-Wonder' routine to notice specific details about the artifact, consider its purpose, and express their curiosities. Following this, students are encouraged to formulate historical questions that connect the artifact to aspects of early American life or trade. The final challenge involves selecting the most compelling question for deeper investigation, emphasizing critical thinking and historical analysis.
