Consider the Source: Historical Records in the Classroom may now be
previewed on-line at its own home page,
(http://www.sara.nysed.gov/services/teachers/ctspromo.htm).
Consider the Source is designed to help records repositories provide access
to historical records for educators and help educators develop the skills
necessary for locating, researching and using historical records in the
classroom. The book contains reproductions of historical records and
ready-to-use lesson plans and worksheets. The records date from the 1790s
to the 1960s. The lesson plans are interdisciplinary and cover every grade
level.
