Lost and Found Activity Step One: What Do You See? Step Two: What Do You Think? Step Three: What Do You Wonder? How could students notate their thoughts?

What might the value be of doing an activity like this with students? How is working with individual images and then pooling the collective information useful in developing students’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills? What is the value of collective knowledge in developing individual prior knowledge? All images from the previous exercise come from

Ideas Science: Inventory walk, fossils, bones Social studies: antiques Language Arts: Objects from a book Math: WCYDWT World languages: Cultural objects

Using a Historical Photograph

[Antietam, Md. President Lincoln and Gen. George B. McClellan in the general's tent]. Gardner, Alexander, ,Gardner, Alexander, , photographer. CREATED/PUBLISHED 1862 October 3. SUMMARY Photograph from the main eastern theater of the war, Battle of Antietam, September- October NOTES Reference: Civil War photographs, / compiled by Hirst D. Milhollen and Donald H. Mugridge, Washington, D.C. : Library of Congress, No Title from Milhollen and Mugridge. Forms part of Civil War glass negative collection (Library of Congress). SUBJECTS United States--History--Civil War, Lincoln, Abraham. McClellan, George B. Antietam, Battle of, Md., Wet collodion negatives. United States--Maryland--Antietam. United States--History--Civil War, Lincoln, Abraham. McClellan, George B. Antietam, Battle of, Md., Wet collodion negatives. United States--Maryland--Antietam. MEDIUM 1 negative : glass, wet collodion. CALL NUMBER LC-B

Clothes on rack. Is rack made out of branches? How long has McClellan been at this site that he has stuff hanging? Top hat is upside-down. I think it’s Lincoln’s because he wore top hats a lot. Why is it upside-down? U.S. Flag draped on table. Is it being used as a tablecloth? Why is it there? Seems disrespectful. Tent. Tall ceiling! Why so big? Cracks or folds in image. How did it get damaged? Pillow and quilt Does the general sleep AND work here? Is he meeting the President in his BEDROOM? General McClellan (learned from Web site) Who was he in the Civil War? Tall man with beard in suit. It’s Lincoln (the Web site said so). Why is the President at a battlefield? Where is his security team? Is he safe? Table. Looks like it might fold up for travel. Grass. Not winter. Web site says Fall 1862 during Battle of Antietam. Did the Union win this battle? Which side is currently winning the war? He doesn’t have a beard, so he must have shaved recently. Is this a staged photo? Photos took a long time; people had to sit still, I think. They probably posed. Why?
