Primary vs. Secondary Sources Today’s LEQ: Why is it important to know the difference between historical facts and historical interpretations?

What’s the difference?

Primary Sources Document or physical object written or created during the time under study Offers an inside view

For example… Diary of Anne Frank - Experiences of a Jewish family during WWII

Secondary Sources Interpretation of a primary source (an outsider’s view) More steps removed from the event being studied

For example… A history textbook or a magazine or journal that interprets/reviews past events...

Why does this matter? Some secondary sources are reliable! However, be skeptical!!! Facts based on documents or opinioned conclusions?

The BIG Idea… It’s important to distinguish between historical fact and historical interpretation! Is this all the evidence? Or, just what the author wanted me to read?

What’s this have to do with Christopher Columbus???

Gallery Walk – Part 2 Revisit the sources hanging around the room. Now that you understand the difference between historical fact and historical interpretation, indicate on your graphic organizer whether each document is a primary or secondary source. Be sure to include a brief explanation.
